Royal's Pledge to Patients with Learning Disabilities

Friday, June 22nd 2012 15:15

Chesterfield Royal Hospital has signed up to Mencap's "Getting it right" charter to improve healthcare and treatment for people with a learning disability.

The campaign was launched in 2010 to insure that people with a learning disability can understand the treatment they will receive and to take part in the decision making process.

Alongside the charter, Mencap will work with the Royal to develop practical guidance and spell out the adjustments they need to make sure they can offer support and ensure the best possible healthcare for people with a learning disability.
