If you are shielding and have been invited for screening, please let your screening nurse know during your telephone appointment. We can discuss what we are doing to keep you safe, and the options that you have.
You might want to discuss your screening appointment with the health professionals who usually provides your care. This might be a specialist nurse or doctor.
It is always your choice whether or not to take part in screening. The information leaflet that you got with your invitation will talk you through the screening test itself. You will also need to think about the coronavirus pandemic when you make your choice. Whatever you decide about your appointment please call the number on your invitation letter to let us know.
