Cervical Cancer screening

Who: Women and people with a cervix (e.g., trans and non-binary) age 25 – 64

Screening test: involves using a soft brush to take a small sample of cells from the surface of your cervix. The sample is put into a small plastic container and sent to a laboratory. It is tested for the types of HPV that can cause cervical cancer.

Frequency:
• Age 25-49 – 3 yearly
• Age 50-64 – 5 yearly

Where: general practice (95%), sexual health services

Benefits: NHS cervical screening helps prevent cervical cancer. It saves thousands of lives from cervical cancer each year in the UK. In England cervical screening currently prevents 70% of cervical cancer deaths. If everyone attended screening regularly, 83% could be prevented

Cervical screening: what to expect | NHS – YouTube

Breast Cancer screening

About 1 in 7 women in the UK are diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime. Breast cancer treatment is more successful and there’s a better chance of recovery if cancers are detected at an early stage, which is why it’s so important for women aged 50 to 71 to attend their breast screening when invited. Women aged from 50 to 71 are invited for breast cancer screening every three years.
If you’ve received a breast screening invitation, you can book an appointment that suits you on the NHS London breast screening website. If you cannot attend your appointment or missed it, it’s not too late – call the London Breast Screening Hub on 020 3758 2024 to discuss the options available in your local area, which may include evening or weekend appointments.
Breast screening uses an X-ray test called a mammogram that can spot cancers when they are too small to see or feel. The mammographer will always be female. If you have a health condition, disability, or a physical issue which may make having a mammogram difficult, contact the London Breast Screening Hub on 020 3758 2024. They will make reasonable adjustments to ensure the breast screening services are accessible to you.

For more information about breast screening, like what happens at your appointment or where you’ll have it, visit the NHS website Breast screening (mammogram) – NHS (www.nhs.uk)
Finally, if you notice any changes in your breasts, contact your GP, even if you have recently had a clear breast screening. Do not wait for your next breast screening appointment. Breast cancer in women – Symptoms – NHS (www.nhs.uk)

Londoners – if you’ve received a breast screening invitation letter, don’t put your appointment off. Breast screening saves lives. Book your appointment online at Location Selection (london-breastscreening.org.uk)

Where: Home test kit posted to your home

Benefits:
• Prevents cancer at an early stage when it easier to treat

Many of our patients will be worried about the increased costs of living, and being able to afford to heat their homes this Winter. We know that our patients with underlying respiratory or cardiovascular diseases, the elderly, people with children under 5 and pregnant women, people who are unable to move around to keep warm (those with frailty, a disability or at risk of falls) and those on low incomes / benefits, will be particularly at risk of poor health outcomes.

Royal Borough of Kingston and Richmond Council have put together a comprehensive range of support for people on everything from budgeting and energy bills to food supplies, warm spaces and health and wellbeing at:

Cost of Living Support

https://www.richmond.gov.uk/services/cost_of_living_hub

Advice about staying healthy in Winter https://www.richmond.gov.uk/services/wellbeing_and_lifestyle/your_health/winter_health

For those patients who you feel may be concerned about the cost of living (eg, new presentations of anxiety or sleep issues), or will be particularly vulnerable to the cold, please do ask whether they are worried about being able to heat their homes, or concerned about how the increased cost of living will affect them, and signpost them to the above.

People who are aged 65 or over, have a long term condition or on a low income (eg in receipt of Universal Credit) can also self-refer themselves to Thinking Works, a not-for-profit organisation who can offer advice, support and home assessments on keeping homes warm and reducing energy costs:

https://www.thinkingworks.co.uk/richmond-winter-warmth

https://www.thinkingworks.co.uk/kingstonwhbh

We will also be proactively contacting those patients who will be extremely vulnerable to signpost support.

Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) NHS patient reimbursement scheme – A message from Kingston Hospital

Kingston Hospital is within the expanded Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) and we have put plans in place to support patients who have to pay the ULEZ charge to attend their hospital appointment, and may be eligible to have this refunded. NHS patients may be able to claim a reimbursement for the ULEZ charge if they are clinically assessed as unable to travel to and from an appointment on public transport and:

Have a compromised immune system, or
Require regular therapy or assessments, or
Need regular surgical intervention

If patients believe they meet the above criteria, we are asking them to mention this at the reception desk when they book in for their appointment. If they are using an automated check in for their appointment, we are asking them to mention this to the clinician at the start of their appointment, so an assessment can be caried out using the attached form.

To note:

Patients are responsible for paying their ULEZ charge
At this time, the Trust is only able to refund payments that have been made through the TfL Auto Pay account (if patients are unable to pay through TfL Auto Pay, they should let us know during their assessment)
The Trust will request the refund and the money will then be credited to the patient via the Auto Pay system (it is free to set up an Auto Pay account at gov.uk/auto-pay)
Patients can claim back the charge for up to three months after the date of their appointment
NHS patients cannot claim for Congestion Charge or Ultra Low Emission Zone fines (Penalty Charge Notices)

If you receive any queries from patients asking about the reimbursement scheme, please direct them to the Kingston Hospital website for further details: https://kingstonhospital.nhs.uk/ultra-low-emission-zone-ulez-nhs-patient-reimbursement-scheme/
