Promoting Informed Choice
Promoting informed choice is an important function for the breast screening programme. It seeks to optimise uptake of breast screening and reduce health inequalities by identifying and addressing any relevant general practice, organisational or population factors that impact on uptake.
The goal is to ensure that all eligible women in Northern Ireland are able to make an informed choice about attending for breast screening. To facilitate achieving this goal the NI BSP has a Regional Promoting Informed Choice Group with representatives from Trust Health Improvement and Breast Screening Units sitting on it.
