Our Hospital Helpers

Our Hospital Helpers are patients and carers who kindly work with us to improve care for patients with Learning disabilities and Autism. 

They form a focus group that meets several times a year.

  • They produce Easy Read documentation as standard.

  • They are a Readership panel for patient information.

  • They test out ideas.

  • They feedback about hospital visits and experiences.

Below are some examples of:

Our staff at Salisbury District Hospital have long been well regarded for the quality of care and treatment they provide for our patients and for their innovation, commitment and professionalism. This has been recognised in a wide range of achievements and it is reflected in our award of ¿´Æ¬Èí¼þ Foundation Trust status. This is afforded to hospitals that provide the highest standards of care.
