Info at the touch of a button
Carers are being reminded they can access information online.
NHS 24 runs the online service Care Information Scotland which has lots of information in one place for people with caring responsibilities.
NHS 24’s associate medical director, Dr Paul Perry said carers play an important role so it’s vital we support them.
He said: “Looking after a loved one, a friend or neighbour can be rewarding but it can also be demanding, physically and emotionally.
“Carers need support too and our service, Care Information Scotland, offers a wide range of advice and information.
“Bringing all the different resources together in one place makes it easier for people to find what they need and helps us to care for our carers.”
