Are you concerned about a patient‘s condition?

Here at DGT, we have multiple mechanisms to recognise when a patient's condition is worsening.

However as a patient’s loved one, you may be able to spot when things aren’t right early on.

If you have concerns that your friend or family member is deteriorating please:

  • Inform the nurse looking after them
  • Ask to speak to a doctor on the ward
  • Ask to speak to the nurse in charge

If you still feel concerned, please call 01322 428652 to be put through to senior specialist nurses 24/7 for a second opinion. You will need to provide the patient’s name, ward and nature of the problem.
