A new pilot scheme to improve the care vulnerable people get in hospital in Bradford District & Craven has been launched

Posted on: 22 February 2018

The Red Bag Pathway, a new pilot scheme to improve the care vulnerable people get in hospital, has been launched across the Bradford District and Craven.

Over 100 health and social care professionals have signed up to the Red Bag Pathway pilot to ensure personal information and possessions remain close to a person if they’re admitted.

50 Care homes will initially be using the distinctive red bag for people going to hospital which will contain information about their health, medication and allergies as well as personal items like pyjamas and hearing aids.

The scheme is then planned to be rolled out across all care homes later in the year.
