Implementing hearing, sight and dental checks in special residential schools

MariaPCC 17 June 2024

The NHS long term plan outlines a commitment to bring hearing, sight and dental checks to autistic children and young people and/or those with a learning disability in special schools. Funding for this is included in the recent primary care service development funding guidance. Integrated care boards (ICBs) need to ensure these checks are in place.

We wrote about the initial proof of concept testing Special school eye care service. PCC supported this programme and can support ICBs to implement the new service through school engagement, market engagement and school and provider matching. Contact enquiries@pcc-cic.org.uk to find out more.
