Useful information

If possible, we encourage patients to get dressed everyday as you would do at home. Well fitting, comfortable and supportive footwear is essential.

All toiletries are required.


Food and drink: although snacks and drinks are welcome, some stroke patients may find their ability to swallow has been affected and this could mean their diet needs to be modified. It is important to check with the nurse caring for the person you are visiting that what you bring is suitable and safe.

All inpatient wards at Hampshire Hospitals have adopted John’s Campaign, which invites the carers of patients with dementia to stay in hospital with their loved ones if they wish.
