Hospital curtains

Hi Samantha,

I don't have any experience of this, but when you mentioned 'but also patients as they often pull curtains open' what did you mean ?

Do you mean, patients who pull open the curtains around their own bed ?

If so, I tend to think that is a choice the patient can legitimately make ?

Regards, Mike

Hi again Samantha,

I must admit to being surprised, that you have not had replies to this question - it strikes me that it is probably a question which other people have wondered about in their working lives.

Although in my experience, there is often an element of 'pure luck' in responses to questions - you can't assume that 'a really good question' will attract lots of responses,

Regards, Mike

I will re post this question on the Dignity in Action Facebook page lets see what we get.
Regards
Jan

I will not be happy if u enter before u speak

I just wrote this if its of any use
R M: We made our own on the ward. Red card with do not enter in big print then laminated then attached big bull dog clips. Works every time.

All the wards in my local hospital have it printed on the curtains that they use.
