Are you an informal (i.e: unpaid) carer?

When a family member or friend becomes ill, older or disabled, and needs support, you may provide help and support to them, unpaid.

This might be providing help with shopping, cleaning, cooking, doing the laundry, assisting with medication, helping with appointments.

It can also be help moving around, as well as emotional support, arranging and checking on care, attending meetings, financial support and washing/ bathing or helping to communicate.

If you give significant support to another person, irrespective of whether you live with that person or not, you are considered a carer, even if the person you care for is unable, or even unwilling to acknowledge your involvement.

This form will help the practice determine if you are an unpaid carer and therefore eligible to be considered for group 6 priority Covid-19 Vaccination.

We may ask you to upload proof of your status as part of this form.

Many thanks Portcullis Surgery.
