Useful information
We encourage our 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 – Please be aware that although snacks and drinks are welcomed some patients will have an altered swallow following a stroke and this may result in the need for modified consistency diet and fluids for a period of time. Please ask the nurse caring for the person that you are visiting if what you bring is suitable and safe.
All inpatient wards at Hampshire Hospitals have adopted John’s Campaign, which allows the carers of patients with dementia to stay in hospital with their loved ones if they wish.
Contacting Us
Please be aware we are a busy ward but will answer your call as quickly as possible. It is recommended that families allocate one member to contact the ward and feedback any updates accordingly. Please be aware that we are only able to give limited information out over the phone.
