Care Leaver's Health Summary (The Health Passport)
When you turn 18, you will receive your health passport, this will include useful information on how to access your health history and details of your immunisations. You may need to know about your medical history for future employers or for travel insurance purposes; if this is the case your health passport will give you access to the information that you will need. It will enable you to check what illnesses or treatments you have had, any allergies that you may have had, and whether you have had any vaccinations. It may also be useful for you to know of any previous medications that you have taken at different times in your life.
