Planning Your Hospital Discharge
If you do need to go into hospital and are worried about how you will manage after discharge, speak to the nurse in charge of the ward about this. Depending on the ward you can be referred to the Front Door Response Team (FDRT) or the Transfer of Care team (TOC.) They will assess what is required for you to be safely discharged from hospital. This might include support from carers, physiotherapists and occupational therapists as well as equipment or adaptations to your home. More information
