PERFORMANCE: Early discharge of patients before noon is a key action for staff at Nottingham University Hospitals Trust.

The trust is looking to increase the number of pre-noon discharges to help improve patient flow, create new capacity and improve patient experience.

A new discharge lounge was opened at the trust last year and early use of the lounge is one of the trust’s ‘five daily actions’ to support early decision making and releasing more beds.
