• Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND) local offer
  Shropshire’s local offer helps families, children, young people and professionals to support those with special educational needs or disabilities to find accurate and appropriate information so that they can make positive decisions about their lives. Please see the SEND section on our website or visit https://new.shropshire.gov.uk/the-send-local-offer/
  
  
• Summary Care Record (SCR AI)
  Another way to help patients with a learning disability is by asking for their consent to add Additional Information to their Summary Care Record (SCR AI). This will help improve quality of care for patients when and if they are treated by other services, including emergency and urgent care. SCR AI uses existing information already recorded in the GP system and therefore helps to reduce the need for data entry into numerous systems.
