    About Us

Who organises care?

If you are living at home, the NHS professionals that you are the most likely to see are your family doctor or your community nurse.

If you are in hospital and are looking for care at home or a care in a residential or nursing home before you can be discharged there will probably be doctors, nurses, physiotherapists and occupational therapists and social workers concerned with your care. They should be involved in discharge planning, and will decide whether you need continuing care or community care.
