Hospital staff

Identifying hospital staff

You will be able to identify staff by their uniforms.   All uniforms have the job role of the wearer clearly identified on the right breast pocket.  Employees wear a hospital identification badge which will also denote their job role with the exception of Corporate Support Service staff who currently do not wear a name badge, they are identifiable by their access control card which they must wear on their lanyard.  If identification badges are not visable, please ask who they are and to see their badge. If you are still not satisfied please call a member of the ward staff.
