“Here’s my mobile phone number” is now one of the most caring things a Healthcare Professional can say.



Mary Haight Living with Hepatitis C is tough so I give my mobile number to Patients

I usually give my mobile number to patients and tell them to ring if they have a problem, much to the horror of my colleagues. I’m semi-retired now so don’t mind if people call. Some ring because of the side-effects of the medication, others because they need reassurance or a friendly voice… …My guilty pleasure is the American show Judge Judy, where a real-life judge sorts out people’s domestic disputes. She’s great. She sees things as they are, cuts to the chase and offers a practical solution. Maybe we should invite her to join the NHS
