Early Supported Discharge is a service that aims to help patients who have suffered a stroke to be discharged from hospital sooner and to carry out rehabilitation at home rather than in hospital.
Four focus groups were held across the county:
21 April - South Petherton Community Hospital
26 April - Williton Community Hospital
3 May - Sydenham Community Centre, Bridgwater
11 May - Shepton Mallet Community Hospital
We supported facilitation and gathered feedback to record anonymously. In total we heard from 19 patients and 20 carers.
An overview of the information gathered is in the two appendices below.
This report was produced by the previous Healthwatch Somerset service provider, The Care Forum.
