Thanks for the heads up, I'll definitely check with our practice. They've recently set up a new department, the frailty team. We are both it seems under that department, my husband because of his condition and me as his carer, but what you say makes me think I'd better check with the practice records.i phoned my doctor today for an appt for my husband and checked if i was registered as a carer and no i wasnt, despite telling the practice manager in an email and my doctor being the same as my husbands.
