Cervical Screening Service

Cervical Smear Services are available at both RSH and PRH for staff who are due or overdue their smear test.

To arrange an appointment, contact the Colposcopy Secretaries on Ext 5969, 5968 or 5967.

Testimonial from a member of staff:

“I kept forgetting to book a smear test (due to work commitments) and to be honest i kept putting it off due to past experiences and embarrassment.

Then I saw the colposcopy service was giving up their free time to offer SaTH staff a smear test in work time. Booking was easy and Sister Claire made me feel completely comfortable as I was so anxious (as previous smears had caused a lot of distress) – she was so friendly and professional and her skill/ expertise meant it was over within a matter of minutes with no discomfort.

Thank you – I would recommend the service to any woman”
