Healthwatch Telford and Wrekin have heard from different care homes of times when discharges to them from hospital have been unsafe in their opinions. Likewise, we have heard from people who have mixed experiences of discharge. This is becoming more prevalent. We aim to work with care homes to explore this is in more detail and also promote this to the public to seek individual experiences of unsafe discharge.
