Bristol hospitals included in South West NHS audio-guide project by trust with award-winning homeless patient scheme

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust said a project that funded a Homelessness Specialist Nurse in emergency departments at its hospitals won recognition at the HSJ Patient Safety Awards [2]. The trust said it has joined another South West hospital trust and the regional Sight Loss Council to develop what it described as the first NHS audio guides for blind and visually impaired people [1]. The audio guides are intended to help improve accessibility across hospitals in Gloucester, Cheltenham and Bristol [1].
