At Salford Primary Care Together we are committed to ensuring people feel confident to use our services no matter who they are, and we are committed to making sure all our patients feel supported and listened to.

We hope is that every single LGBT person knows their rights and is able to access the support they need. All staff at the practice have a good understanding of the issues facing our LGBT patients and positively support them in accessing the care they need.

Please do speak to a member of staff if you would like more information on support available for LGBT people or you can go directly to LGBT Foundation who provide a wide range of services and support for the needs of the diverse range of people who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans.

Any information given to any member of staff will remain confidential. In exceptional circumstances, permission from the patient will be sought before any information is disclosed.

The practice has a confidentiality policy which is adhered to by every member of staff. Patients have a right to the standards of confidentiality maintained by those providing their care and these standards should be made known at their first point of contact.

If you need to speak to someone in private, then please tell the reception staff who will arrange this for you.

• Screening for Trans and Non-Binary People
• Manchester Pride
