Summary
Published by Healthcare Improvement Scotland in March, the new cervical screening standards include recommendations to ensure women receive accessible letters and information about screening and healthcare professionals are trained to support women to make informed choices.
To support women to make informed decisions about cervical screening, information should be provided in a format and language that suits their needs. Support should be provided to enable informed decisions with opportunities for questions. Care should be compassionate, trauma informed, understanding and non-judgemental. Women should always be respected and supported in their choices and decisions.
