Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust's Carers Promise

• We will do our best to work towards supporting the carers of patients receiving treatment and care at all Frimley Health Foundation NHS Trust sites.

• We will work together with social care to reduce the likelihood of a carer feeling isolated, deteriorating in health due to the caring responsibilities and/or experiencing financial difficulties.

• We will listen to carers’ views and concerns and work to address these with a positive helpful outcome.

• We will use the invaluable source of information you can contribute to your friend or relative’s care and wherever possible use this information to inform and improve care.

• We will respect your decision as a carer on how much you would like to be involved as a carer while your friend or relative is a patient in the hospital.

• We will do our best to help you find information, support and guidance that will help you as a carer.

• We will involve you in all stages of the discharge planning process to ensure that your own needs are taken into account.

• We will care – together.
