1 Introduction

Welcome to the Accessible Information Toolkit. A toolkit produced by local Healthwatch, for local Healthwatch.

1.1 Who is this toolkit for?

This toolkit has been developed for local Healthwatch.

1.2 Why has it been developed?

A collaborative group of local Healthwatch with a particular interest in accessible information identified a need for more support on this topic. It has been created to support and inform local Healthwatch activity around the provision of accessible information. This includes a methodology for undertaking Enter & View visits that support adherence to the Accessible Information Standard.

2 The Accessible Information

Standard

People with a disability or sensory loss have rights in relation to the information provided by services. From the 1st August 2016 some organisations must follow the Accessible Information Standard by law. NHS England have created the Accessible Information Standard which the NHS and adult social care services are legally obliged to meet. Whilst there are clear benefits to local people of other organisations adopting the standard (e.g. local Healthwatch and children's social care), there is currently no legal requirement for this. As part of the Accessible Information Standard, organisations that provide NHS or adult social care must do five things.

They must:

Ask people if they have any information or communication needs, and find out how to meet their needs

Record those needs in a set way
