Outpatient Care

You may need to come into hospital to see a specialist doctor or nurse in a clinic or have some tests done.

To do this you will come as an ‘outpatient’.

This means that will not have to stay in hospital but you will just be visiting for an appointment

Sometimes you can have you appointment ‘virtually’.

This means you can see the doctor using a computer or tablet or smartphone from your own home.

Not everyone finds this easy and an appointment at the hospital may be better.

Please remember to bring your ‘This is me, My Care Passport’ to your appointment.
