New Guide on preparing for a stay in hospital

Charity Counsel and Care have today published a useful new Guide on how to prepare for a stay in hospital.

The Guide covers planned and unplanned hospital admissions, managing your finances and benefits, being in hospital, the discharge process and what happens when you get home.

Well worth a look if you or someone you care for is about to go into hospital.
