Health Resources
Access to appropriate care within hospitals and the general health system can be difficult for people with Down syndrome. It is essential to ensure that everyone has access to good quality health care and is supported to access information and make informed health decisions.
Our resources for health professionals provide evidenced-based advice to health professionals to better understand how to support people with Down syndrome within the health system.
Resources have also been developed for people with Down syndrome and their families to be prepared and informed about hospital stays, building relationships with GPs and decision making.
