WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO!
It’s simple. Patients have a better outcome if they are they have a better experience.
- Patients with post-operative complications experience worse psychological wellbeing, delaying their healing (NHS England, 2019)
- Post-discharge follow-up reduces the potential for unplanned and emergency care admissions (NHSi, 2019)
- Improved discharge education enhances post-discharge recovery (Kang et al, 2020)
