Your hospital stay. What to expect when going into hospital, while you’re there and when you’re discharged

Your hospital stay. What to expect when going into hospital, while you’re there and when you’re discharged (June 2019)

This guide aims to put older people at ease if they are going to be admitted to hospital. It will help them: prepare for going into hospital; understand their rights in hospital; understand the discharge process; and be more informed about care afterwards. It may also be useful for relatives and friends, as it can be a difficult time for them too.
