As part of our commitment to appropriate use of social media platforms, a spokesperson at Hampshire Hospitals said:

"Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has a comprehensive social media policy which is routinely updated and easily available to all staff, and we are reminding all those who work for us about their responsibilities when engaging on social media platforms.

At Hampshire Hospitals, we operate a zero-tolerance policy towards any harmful conduct, inappropriate or aggressive behaviours, whether in-person or online.

It is vital our patients and staff know that their safety and security is of the utmost importance to us, and that any reports of unacceptable behaviour will be immediately investigated whilst being handled with the utmost sensitivity.  

If any member of the public has a specific concern then please do contact our patient Advice and Liaison Service by emailing palsandcomplaints@hhft.nhs.uk."
