Make sure you check your admissions letter for all the details you may need to know such as where to go when you arrive.  It’s a good idea to phone the hospital on the number on your appointment letter to make sure everything is ready for your arrival.
 
It is also a good idea to phone the admissions office or ward for advice if you get a cough or cold and are not sure whether you should come in. 
 
Bring your admission letter with you and if you have any questions or concerns write them down and bring them with you as well, to help remind you when you are in hospital.
 
When you arrive at hospital to be admitted, go straight to your ward. You need not be alone, a relative or friend can come with you to the hospital and they can stay with you while you are admitted.
 
We recommend that if you are a day patient and having any form of sedation that you arrange for someone to take you home.
