Learning disabilities: improved bowel screening
Abstract:
Bowel cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in the UK but it can be successfully treated if detected at an early stage. In 2006 the NHS Bowel Cancer Screening Programme was introduced to everyone aged 60-74 years in England. This article describes how South Tyneside NHS Foundation Trust community Learning Disability Service addressed the bowel screening needs of those people with a learning disability in Gateshead and South Tyneside. A project was developed to improve and increase the uptake of bowel screening for this population group.
