If you're admitted to hospital, its important to bring your regular prescribed medicines with you. This simple step can make a significant difference to patient safety, experience and flow.

If you are unable to do this, could a friend, relative or carer help by bringing them in for you?

Bringing your medicines into hospital can help us to:
📋Provide safe care by establishing an accurate medication history
💊Continue treatment without delays
🏠Get patients home sooner
🌳Reduce waste and support sustainability

Find out more here➡️

Patients are encouraged to bring their own regular prescribed medicines with them when they are admitted to hospital. This can help us care for you, support safety, reduce delays, and cut waste.

🧠 September is World Alzheimer’s Month

Looking after our brain is something we can start at any age.

This month, focus on the everyday choices that can help us protect our brain health:

🧩 Keep learning
Whether it’s picking up a new hobby, reading, learning a skill, or challenging yourself with something unfamiliar, giving your brain new experiences helps keep it active.

🤝 Keep connected
Time spent with family, friends and your wider community matters. Social interaction can support wellbeing while helping to reduce loneliness and isolation.

🥗 Feed your brain
Aim for a varied, balanced diet with plenty of vegetables, fruit, nuts, whole grains and healthy fats such as olive oil.

💜 There’s no single way to prevent dementia, but there are positive steps we can take to support our overall health and wellbeing.
