Your Health Passport

A ‘Health Passport’ has been designed by the Health and Disability Commissioner, as a way of you gaining a better health service. You do not have to complete one, it is entirely voluntary.

It is a booklet that you can carry when you attend hospital appointments or other providers of health and disability services. It contains information that you want people to know how to support and communicate with you. It also helps professionals to make appropriate and safe decisions about your care.
