SHQ 2U is a nurse-led outreach pilot program providing mobile cervical screening to people with disability in metropolitan Perth.

Cervical cancer is preventable and highly treatable when found early, yet many people living with disability face barriers to testing, including transport, physical access, communication, stigma, and limited availability of person-centred health services.

SHQ 2U has been developed to help reduce these barriers by bringing safe and accessible cervical screening support closer to where people live and receive care.

You can book an appointment by phone or by filling out an online form
• 08 6375 7770
• shq.org.au/disability/shq2u/shq2u-request-form

The service is free, but those without a Medicare card may have to pay pathology costs.

This initiative received funding from the Australian Government. This pilot home-visiting CST service is supported by the WA Cervical Cancer Prevention Program.
