Petition: Bring Jess’s Rule to Wales to prevent missed & delayed diagnoses
Too many people – especially women – are told their pain is “normal” and endure years of misdiagnosis. Jess’s Rule creates additional safeguards to the existing measures in Wales through a 'three strikes' approach: mandatory follow-up and timely investigation for persistent symptoms, including a formal trigger after repeated visits. The specific protections set out in Jess's Rule exist in England but not in Wales. Everyone deserves equal care.
