This week is #AutismAcceptanceWeek. Did you know we’ve introduced autism awareness cards to the RUH? They’ve been created in response to patient feedback to provide autistic people with a different way to alert our staff of their autism diagnosis so adjustments can be made. 🥰
Look out for posters at reception desks inviting you to take a card if you are autistic – this means staff know right from the start that you might need extra support or that we might need to do things differently for you. Find out more on our website: ruh.nhs.uk/media/media_re…
@RUHBath I see the poster but always get told that the cards are unavailable and no one passes on the info to those who need to know 🤦🏻♀️
@RUHBath You don’t provide adjustments though even if people show the card!
