Information for Inpatients

Welcome to City Hospitals Sunderland NHS Foundation Trust. It is our aim to ensure you get the best treatment in surroundings that make your stay with us as comfortable as possible.

Information on what to bring into hospital, what to do on arrival etc can be found by using the links on the left and we hope this will help you before you come into hospital, while you are in hospital, and before you go home. If you have been admitted as an emergency rather than on a planned basis, some of the information will not apply to you. For more details about what happens on your ward, ask one of the nursing staff who will be caring for you.  In addition, please find below the Trust's "Your Stay in Hospital" booklet which will be in or on the locker next to your bed on admission.  If it is not, please do ask a member of the ward staff for a copy. 

Our aim is always to maintain very high standards, but if you think that we have not achieved our aim, as a patient or for your relatives or carers we would like to hear from you. We want to learn from your experience, so we can provide an even better service to all those who visit the Trust.

We hope that your stay in hospital with us is a comfortable one.
