Patient Pathways


Patient pathways provide an outline of the plan of care you may receive during your hospital stay for a particular condition or surgery.  This may assist in your preparation and understanding of your condition and care before and during the course of your hospital stay.

N.B. Patient pathways are intended as a guide only.  As each patient is an individual and responds differently, the care plan may alter.  If you have any questions, please discuss with your doctor or nurse.
