"Plastic Plates"

About: St Andrew's Healthcare Birmingham / Hurst

(as a staff member posting for a patient/service user),

Currently the ward is using plastic plates for about 1 month. I would prefer this to remain because I feel crockery plates are a risk.

Thank you for your feedback. It is really hard to get a balance of homely comforts such as crockery plates and cups, and metal cutlery, whilst still managing the safety of all on the wards. It is interesting to hear a view as to what makes you feel safe, and the impact that this has on your progress.

When we look at changes like this in future, it is really good to get opinions from everyone, so we can make decisions based on a consensus.
