Hospital discharge and its impact on patient flow through hospitals: evidence session with NHS bodies
Thank you, Nicky. And if I ask other witnesses to come in, but perhaps I could also add to the question as well: in our consultation responses, there was a common theme of rushed, inappropriate discharges without support in place. And there was also a number…
