It provides a framework within which to discuss the staff member’s disability and what changes/adjustments can be made at work to assist
them. Completion of the passport is voluntary, and it is designed to be completed with reference to NHS Lothian’s Reasonable Adjustment Guidance. The passport and Reasonable Adjustments Guidance can be found on the For disabled applicants page.
