"Made sure I knew my rights"

About: Advocacy Support Cymru

(as a volunteer/advocate),

Before my advocate started to attend my ward rounds, I had no rights or voice and believed I  had to do what my consultant said. My advocate made sure I knew my  rights, elicited my wishes and feelings, and challenged my consultant about the rationale behind the decision to move me. I am now being discharged home and am very happy. I would not have got this result without IMHA support. Thank you.
