Inpatients

We do not routinely see patients on the wards, but will see patients who have been referred with respiratory and or mobility problems and those patients who are admitted for bladder retraining.

Gynaecology
If you are being admitted for surgery then you should be given a “Post-operative exercise and advice booklet” at your pre-clerking appointment, which you should bring into hospital with you.
