Updated disability discrimination act guidance for GP premises from the GPC

The GPC has published updated guidance on physical adjustments to GP premises required under the Disability Discrimination Act (1995) which is very helpful and which we suggest you read in full.

Remember, whilst practices cannot be expected to implement unreasonable changes, PCTs will be paying close attention to how service providers make adjustments to comply with the legislation.

Contact Nora Breen, Manager GP Support Services at the LMC on 020 7387 2034 ext 241 or nbreen@lmc.org.uk if you encounter any specific difficulties on this issue.
