My daughter has been admitted to Hereward Wake and I thought it would be useful to others to write about the process of admission and the early days so they would know what to expect. The week before the admission we heard nothing from the ward so I contacted them them and was put in touch with the social worker who appears to liaise between ward and family. She emailed the carers pack which was useful.
On admission phone was confiscated as it had a camera. My daughter was able to phone from a phone in the corridor free of charge for this call otherwise you need to buy a phonecard to use it. TIP... take a basic phone with no camera or internet and load your important contacts onto it before you go
