ENTER AND VIEW REPORT WARD 3 HARPLANDS HOSPITAL

Report - 2 January 2020

The ward is a locked ward and entry is via an electronic secure admittance system. Similar to other parts of the hospital, this is primarily for the safety of patients. It has twenty-two beds which are made up of single rooms and four bedded dormitories.

At the time of our visit, thirteen beds were occupied and we were informed that there were four planned discharges on the day of our visit. The ward is also admitting patients from out of the area which has been averaging at approximately one patient a week. The ward looks a bit ‘tired’ and in need of decoration and some refurbishment. We were told that this had been picked up during the latest Place inspection and work was starting soon to address these issues.
