Reports capture views on cervical screening and jabs
A need was identified to undertake public and patient engagement to support potential changes to service delivery regarding uptake of screening and immunisation programmes.
During this project Healthwatch Lancashire, Healthwatch Blackpool and Healthwatch Blackburn with Darwin received feedback from 245 women through engagement activities in the community and an online survey, as well as from a further 60 offenders across four prisons and 14 men and women from travelling communities.
