New Discharge Lounge at hospital
Situated on the ground floor of the hospital in the Ramone building, patients assessed as fit for home will be transferred to the comfortable surroundings of the new lounge where discharge arrangements, for example paper work and medications are completed.
Welcoming the new development Louise Devlin, Head of Service for the Southern Health and Social Care Trust says: “Most patients want to get home to their own surroundings as soon as they are medically able and can sometimes find the discharge process a bit lengthy and frustrating from the time they are told they will be leaving until we have all the necessary arrangements in place.
