Learning disabilities team transforms hospital experience and culture of care

Elaine Cole @prideinnursing RCNi projects editor

Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust’s learning disabilities team is improving awareness and skills beyond its own hospital

An acute hospital team that transformed the hospital experience of people with learning disabilities has won the Learning Disability Nursing category of the 2019 RCNi Nurse Awards. The learning disability nurse team is transforming the experience of individual patients at an acute hospital while evidencing its value by halving patients’ length of stay.
