Patient Access and Safe Waiting Policy (P108)
This policy provides guidance for staff to ensure all patients who require access to all clinical services provided by Derbyshire Community Health Services are managed consistently, according to national and local frameworks and definitions. This policy describes the structure of the access route for patients and generic rules which apply across all Divisions across the Trust as well as actions that should be taken to ensure patients are kept safe while they wait. Successful implementation of this policy will also provide assurance that the Trust understands the risks that waiting for treatment can pose to patients and is taking steps to mitigate against these risks.
