If you would like to share your views on the proposed North Central London changes to maternity, neonatal, and children’s surgical services, please click on this link

Start Well: Proposed changes to maternity, neonatal, and children’s surgical services - North Central London Integrated Care System (nclhealthandcare.org.uk)

The proposals include the reduction of numbers of hospital sites in NCL delivering maternity and neonatal care from five to four and the possible closure of the birthing suites at the Edgware Birth Centre. These changes would create more resilient services, with co-located midwifery and obstetrics led units with neonatal units able to look after premature or unwell babies, alongside a homebirth offer for all boroughs.

For children’s surgery proposals include creating two ‘centres of expertise’ at Great Ormond Street Hospital and UCLH which would mean quicker and better quality of care for babies and small children who need operations.

The consultation runs from 11 December 2023 to 11.59pm on 17 March 2024.

Make sure you and your family are protected against becoming seriously unwell with measles by checking you are up to date with the MMR vaccine.

Across England, on average one in ten children are not up to date with their MMR vaccinations, with some areas of the country as low as two in five, putting thousands of children at risk of catching measles and the disease spreading in unvaccinated communities.

Just two doses of the MMR vaccine gives you and your family lifelong protection against catching measles. The first vaccine is given at age one year an the second at age 3 years and 4 months old. If you’ve missed any doses it’s not too late to catch up. Contact you’re GP Practice today to book an appointment to get up to date.

If you are unsure if you or your child are up to date check your child's red book or GP records and make an appointment to catch up any missed doses.

Our Nurses can provide comprehensive travel health advice and arrange for appropriate immunisations. Please arrange an appointment for a telephone travel consultation. You will then be booked in for the vaccinations.  This should be at least 6-8 weeks before departure if possible. Vaccines need time to take effect and some may require a course over several weeks.

An unpaid carer is anyone including children and adults who looks after a family member, partner or friend who needs help because of their illness, frailty, disability, a mental health problem or an addiction and cannot cope without their support. The care they give is unpaid.

If this applies to you, please let us know so we can make a note (code) on your record and ensure you have any support you need.

Carers Week is 5-11th June - an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring, highlight the challenges unpaid carers face and recognise the contribution they make to families and communities throughout the UK. It also helps people who don't think of themselves as having caring responsibilities to identify as carers and access much-needed support.
