Kineton Surgery

Old School, Market Square, Kineton

Are you a Carer?

A carer is anyone who regularly provides help and support for a relative, neighbour or friend who cannot manage because of their age, sickness or disability. The care they provide is often unpaid, although there are benefits and allowances that carers can claim.  If you do care for someone it is important that your GP knows as we can help support you.

The surgery has a Carers Register and we write annually to all of our carers to touch base and let them know that we are here to help provide support and signpost carers to other organisations that provide help, information and support.

Every month Guideposts the Warwickshire Carers Support organisation runs a session on a Wednesday afternoon.  Please see our website and Facebook pages for the next session.  We are also very interested in supporting young carers so please if you are a young carer and would like advice and support then please come to a Guidepost Session.

If you wish to register yourself as a carer with the surgery please ask at reception for an: ‘I am a carer’ form.
