SELF CARE FOR PATIENTS

Self Care Station - Established in reception with leaflets for self care. A-Z Leaflets are available to patients easily, information and leaflets are kept in draws labelled A-Z and anything a patient asks for should be there. If the patient asks for a leaflet we haven't got the reception staff will be happy to arrange for this to be added and get a copy to the patient.
