Anything else?
I think that when you are being discharged from a Hospital Ward it would be usefull to receive a discharge summary check list ie a discharge letter, how much medication you have taken up to your discharge what you have left to take, how to dispose your sharpes bin, the offer of a sick note if needed, information regarding time scale for your follow up clinic appointment ,information about dos and donts and what to expect following surgery and a phone number for any problems that you may encounter when you are home.
