Enquiries about inpatients

For patients

'Condition checks' will only be given out if you have the full name, date of birth and address of the patient concerned.

Please call the Contact Centre on 01223 245 151

The Contact Centre will establish which ward or department is treating the patient and then offer to transfer you through to the ward.

The ward staff will then make the relevant enquiry with the clinical team looking after the patient.

Please note:

If you can't attend for an operation or other booked stay in hospital for any reason, please phone the number on your appointment card.
