HEALTH MATTERS !
YOUR GOOD HEALTH !
Today, the Liberal Democrats are drawing attention to important policies on Health and improving the NHS.
Key policies include:
* Free eye and dental checks, so that people are not deterred from coming forward for testing
* More free prescriptions for long-term conditions
* Free personal care for elderly people who need help with washing and dressing, etc. - whatever their condition [At present, many people with mental illness have to pay for these services]
* Prevention is as important as cure- concentration on keeping healthy
* Ban smoking in all enclosed public spaces
* Encourage regular health "MoTs"
* Scrap political targets, so that the needs of PATIENTS come first
