There are important changes to how you will receive patient results.

The cyber attack on our IT systems has caused disruption to our services. To give us some time to check the safety of our processes, we are asking that you defer all screening appointments booked for this week (18-21 May).

You can now order your screening service resources on healthpromotion.ie There are two ways to order resources from the health promotion website, depending on whether you are a member of the public or a healthcare professional.

CervicalCheck and the National Women and Infants Health Programme (NWIHP) are working together to maximise capacity in colposcopy and gynaecology services to ensure that women are seen at the right place, by the right person, at the right time.
