ENT department policy on patient telephone calls
This policy has been written in response to the rising number of telephone calls received from parents, including those that are not patients of Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH).
During office hours, enquiries regarding appointments or admissions should be directed to the ENT office.
Patient calls if urgent and regarding clinical matters, should be directed to the nursing desk on Peter Pan Ward. If the nurse on Peter Pan Ward feels the call is sufficiently urgent, then switchboard will be asked to redirect the caller to the appropriate Doctor on call. The contact details are shown below.
These callers should be redirected to their own general practitioner, NHS Direct or the website if applicable.
