🏠 There are lots of things you can do to help a loved one get home from hospital:
• Collecting them as soon as possible - which helps free up beds for people who urgently need care
• Making sure they have clothes, shoes, keys and a phone charger
• Preparing things at home (heating on, essentials ready)
• Asking the ward about any medication or equipment needed
Your support makes a real difference.
