Patient Information

 

Your care team

 

The Patient Care Team of medical specialists, highly trained nurses, clinical and non-clinical support staff aims to deliver the best possible patient care.

 

The clinical and nursing staff at the Hospital work as part of a multidisciplinary team ensuring that each patient receives a comprehensive and personal treatment plan. Our professional and experienced staff are also on hand to offer support and advice to patients throughout their treatment and follow-up.

 

All clinical and nursing staff are fully trained in their area of expertise and are registered with their relevant professional bodies.

 

Specialised care

 

Whilst our clinical staff are trained in all areas of care, we also ensure that we have highly specialised staff as appropriate.  For example:

  • we have a comprehensive Infection Control Team, as well as infection trained ward based staff
  • we have specialist nurses in Wound Care, to ensure patients requiring complex wound care are looked after by an expert. They can also advise and support other staff to care for patients in order to prevent pressure ulcers (bed sores) or complications resulting from a patient’s with wounds.
  • our Cancer Centre has trained specialists in Palliative Care and Breast Care, giving specific support to patients undergoing treatment. They can provide counselling and emotional support for patients and families as well as specialist clinical care.
  • our Paediatric Centre has enhanced their service with a Play Specialist, who supports the nursing staff, children and parents alike to make their hospital experience a more positive one.  

The Hospital has a Patient Relations Department to help with any special needs and requests patients or relatives may have either before or during their stay.  

 

Our Hotel Services Department are available to cater for all other non-medical aspects of your stay including any specific dietary requirements.  For further information see Facilities and Services.
