A family friend has recently gone in to hospital and my father rang up the
hospital to find out which ward she was in because he wanted to visit her.
He was put through to the Hospital reception and they told her which ward
she was in.
I am rather surprised that anyone in this way can identify whether a
particular patient is in a specific hospital and where they are to be found.
I have worked in the NHS but not in an Acute Trust.
