With the help of Language Line, who provide interpreting services at our hospital, we have introduced a new telephone interpreting service for patients whose first language isn’t English. Some 121 languages are spoken locally (there are 7,000 languages used world-wide) and the new service means staff no longer have to book an interpreter days in advance but they can now call Language Line and ask for the services of an interpreter immediately.  For patients this reduces anxiety and speeds up their appointment time. The interpreting system uses a dual handset phone, which means both patient and doctor are involved and the phone does not need to be passed between them. It’s ideal for short consultations. For more complex appointments, we offer face-to-face interpreting services.

To ensure that we are able to provide an interpreter for your appointment, we will need to know your language/dialect at the time your appointment is booked. Please make sure that you tell the Appointments Department in plenty of time. There are no designated patient changing areas. All clinic rooms have curtained areas and patients will be asked to remove any necessary items of clothing behind these curtains. The Clinic staff will not be responsible for any patient possessions or valuables and the patient is asked to be aware of this when attending clinic. Toilets, including toilets for wheelchair users, are located in all outpatient areas. Find the nearest toilets on the hospital map >> The use of mobile phones may interfere with life support and imaging equipment and you may be asked to switch your phone off completely. Notices are displayed in areas where this may apply. In general, we would prefer you not to use your phone while in the outpatient areas as it can be annoying for other patients waiting.

If you need to keep your mobile phone on while in the clinic please put it on 'silent' or 'vibrate'. There is a restaurant (Ground Floor, Blue Zone), Cafe (Main Reception) and newsagents (Main Reception) at the hospital. Please make sure you report to reception in your clinic to let them know you have arrived. Your appointment letter should tell you if you need to do anything before the appointment (e.g. not eat or drink). If you have any queries, please ring the number on the top of your appointment letter. It is a good idea to write down any questions you want to ask during your appointment before you get to the hospital. It can also be helpful to bring a pen and some paper so you can write down what you are told as it can sometimes be difficult to remember once you leave the clinic. Your appointment letter should tell you if you need to bring anything with you. If you have any queries, please ring the number at the top of your appointment letter. It is also helpful to bring any reading glasses and an up-to-date list of medication.

Visiting hospital can be an anxious time and it can help to have a trusted friend or relative or carer with you for help and support during the appointment.

Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust helps to train many healthcare professionals who need practical experience in the treatment and care of patients. We therefore hope you will be happy to allow students to learn from your treatment by being involved in your care. However, if you do not wish students to be involved at any stage then you have every right to say so - please just tell the doctor or nurse.

Your care will not be affected in any way by your decision. Students are always supervised. Yes, you may ask to be seen by a doctor of the same sex. However, as not all specialities have doctors of the same gender we may not be able to comply with your request.
