Getting discharge right: involving unpaid carers with confidence - Unpaid carers play a critical role in safe, timely hospital discharge and yet they are often under‑recognised, under‑involved, or brought in too late.
This one‑hour session launches a new Hospital Discharge Animation and brings together policy and practice to support staff to involve carers earlier, more confidently and more consistently.
This session is aimed at:
- Health and social care staff
- Hospital discharge and flow teams
- AHPs, Nurses, doctors and ward staff
- Carer support organisations
It will cover:
- Why carers matter to safe discharge and system flow
- Myth‑busting common assumptions about involving carers
- Practical insights from hospital carer support practice
