David Amess – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by David Amess on 2015-10-30.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what arrangements are in place for assessing a patient’s eye health on discharge from hospital.

Alistair Burt

Prior to hospital discharge every patient will have a discharge assessment which will look at their ongoing healthcare needs and in light of that an individual care plan will be established.

These plans are formed in line with each individual hospital’s discharge policy, which will vary.
