Hospital Discharge Survey

During the coronavirus pandemic, the usual processes that hospitals follow to discharge people from their care changed to help free up beds. 

While this has helped the NHS manage the demand created by coronavirus, Healthwatch wants to know how this is working for patients and their loved ones. 

Working with the British Red Cross, we are collecting people’s stories of hospital discharge through a dedicated survey  (note the closing date is 23rd August). A report will be produced to help NHS services plan care as we approach the winter season.
