Share your experience of hospital care

Woman talking about her experiences in hospitalHave you or someone you know been in hospital recently? If so‚ we would like to hear from you.

We urgently need you to tell us about your experience to raise awareness of the scandalous way in which many older hospital patients are treated.

Can you help?

We are looking for older people (or members of their families or carers) who:

  • have been in hospital in the last six to eight weeks
  • lost a lot of weight for reasons not directly connected with their immediate medical condition (e.g. failure to monitor patients’ weight and intake of food; the quality of food; the service of food; a lack of consideration of special needs; or a failure to consult the patient or a relative or carer)
  • are willing to talk to journalists from the TV‚ radio and/or newspapers or
  • are willing to let us use their story in an anonymous way in campaign literature

If you can help‚ please fill in our online case study form  

If you prefer‚ you may also download the form from the top right corner of this screen and return it to us:
