Our Safe Promise Group has been promoting the use of Health Passports in the Trust, don’t miss out on the advantages these passports bring to both patients and caregivers.

CARER PASSPORT:

The Carer Passport supports staff to honour our carers pledge by acknowledging the patient has a carer in place and values their input. Whilst you are providing carer support at the Trust, we will ask you what support you as a carer may need and will strive to support you or help you find relevant support.

This may include:

• Ensuring the patient’s discharge planning takes your needs and abilities into account

• Opportunity for training and education to help you prepare for discharge and become confident in new or complex care cases

• Review the possibility of staying overnight if requested

We are able to offer you:

• Regular hot drinks on the Ward

• Flexible visiting hours

• Car parking concessions (may be available)

If this sounds like something you would benefit from using and the person you care for comes to one of our WUTH hospitals, please email WUTH.corporatenursing@nhs.net with your name and postal address, we will send one out to you.

Or please ask a staff member on the Ward on your next visit, they will be able to provide you with a passport and go through it with you.

HEALTH AND WELLBEING PASSPORT:

The aim of this passport is to provide our staff with all necessary information about the patient when they use our hospital services. The information that is supplied will help us to work in partnership with meeting the patient’s needs.

Some of the questions in the passport include:

• How the patient prefers to communicate

• Allergies

• Sensory needs

• Things the patient likes and dislikes

If this sounds like something you would benefit from using, please email WUTH.corporatenursing@nhs.net with your name and phone number, we will contact our Learning Disability, Dementia and Complex Care Specialist to go through the passport with you.
