Our trust values
University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust

Patient property

We want you to be comfortable while staying in our hospitals and understand that having personal items can make a big difference to how you feel.

However please be mindful that a hospital is a large and busy public space and it is not possible for our staff to monitor all that goes on while caring for patients.

For this reason we ask you to think carefully about the types of items you may need to bring with you and only bring essential items (For further details see leaflet.)

UHD CANNOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL LOSSES/DAMAGE TO PROPERTY – SEE DISCLAIMER

Things that will benefit your stay may include:

  • Glasses
  • Hearing aids
  • Dentures
  • Clothes
  • Money
  • Communication device (Phone / Tablet)
  • Prescription medications

We cannot accept any responsibility for loss or damage to any property you bring into our hospitals unless it has been handed to a member of staff for safekeeping and a receipt obtained.
