Cervical Screening invitations / results
Cervical Screening invitations are going Digital!
To make it quicker and easier for you to get invited for cervical screening, your invitations will now arrive via the NHS and text messages.
What if you don’t have the NHS App or can’t receive text messages?
Don’t worry – you will still get a paper letter as a failsafe back up.
It’s as simple as that!
This change will hopefully make the screening process smoother and more convenient for you. You can find more about the NHS app here by clicking here: Getting started with the NHS App - NHS App help and support - NHS
Cervical Screening results
Those who have a negative test result will be notified of this by an NHS App message. It will also appear as an NHS App notification. If the NHS App message isn’t read within 72 hours, a letter will be sent as a failsafe. Abnormal result letters will continue for the time being to be delivered by post.
Mounjaro
Access to Tirzepatide (Mounjaro)
“Tirzepatide, commonly known as Mounjaro, is a new treatment approved by the NHS
to help manage obesity and improve related health conditions. It is a weekly injection
that mimics hormones in your gut to help you feel full for longer and manage blood
sugar levels It is currently available to people who have:
A Body Mass Index (BMI) of 40 or more.
And have, at least 4 of the following health conditions:
- type 2 diabetes
- high blood pressure
- heart disease
- obstructive sleep apnoea
- abnormal blood fats
If you are from a South Asian, Chinese, Middle Eastern, Black African or AfricanCaribbean background, the BMI is 37.5 instead of 40.
We cannot prescribe Mounjaro from our practice right now, or refer to a service in
Calderdale that can prescribe.
We understand patients who meet the NHS criteria are keen to understand their
options.
We know who is eligible for this treatment. This is only a small number of patients.
When this treatment is available in Calderdale we will be contacting eligible patients
to discuss further. You do not need to contact us.
Further information can be found at West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership website:
If you're living with obesity or weight-related health issues, we understand that the
journey can be emotional, frustrating, and difficult - especially when services feel out
of reach. If you do not meet the current criteria and want to lose weight the Calderdale
Better Living Service may be able to help you. This is for people who have a BMI of
27.5 or more.
