Norfolk Community Tuberculosis Service

Our service

We are a specialist service offering support and advice to people of all ages who have tuberculosis (TB).

We work in partnership with Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) to provide advice and support on all aspects of TB and non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections. Our service covers the Norfolk area served by East of England Community Health and Care NHS Trust.

Our base

Norwich Community Hospital
Bowthorpe Road
Norwich

Who we care for

We support all newly diagnosed patients and provide ongoing care at home and in clinics throughout their treatment. We also arrange screening for people who have been in contact with someone who has active TB.

While you're waiting

If you develop any symptoms of active TB - such as a persistent cough, drenching night sweats, or significant weight loss - please see your GP immediately and explain that you are waiting for TB screening or a TB clinic appointment.

GPs can call us on the number below for advice.

Referral

We accept referrals from:

  • individuals (self-referral)
  • GPs

We respond to queries about all aspects of TB from both professionals and the public.
