Living 100 miles away from Stoke Mandeville hospital, I was allowed to visit in the mornings of a weekend. The Learning Disability nurses are superb: they have kept an eye on him for me and texted me. If I had any real concerns, they dealt with it.
All hospitals should have nurses in this role. As my brother is blind and has no language to speak of, he was missing out on basic things like drinks. The LD nurses would monitor that.
