When patients from Sudbury Prison are referred from secondary care to Out Patient therapy, MSK or Podiatry, for example post-operative patients, they occasionally require a chaperone.

Clinical Decision Making Toolkit (G73)
As practitioners, we are tasked with making clinical decisions with patients and clients many times during their health and care journey. Clinical decision making involves a balanced understanding of the person, your experience, awareness, knowledge and information gathering, using appropriate assessment tools, your colleagues and evidence-based best practice to guide you. It is about “joining the dots” to make an informed decision.
