Unable to go off ward

"Unable to go off ward"

About: Rampton Hospital

(as a service user),

This makes me feel not happy, because i can't go off ward because there isnt a qualified to take me.

Please can this be sorted as soon as possible.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience on care opinion.

The Hospital has created an Internal Working Instruction (IWI) that is now live to address this issue.

Patients assessed as being able to self-administer certain medications, including inhalers, will be able to access off ward activities without the need of a Qualified Nurse. Patients will be provided with their own secure pouch containing Salbutamol inhaler/GTN spray if prescribed following a risk assessment by the MDT.

I hope this has resolved your concerns raised.

Take care

Harriet
