Age Concern Hampshire work with the NHS at Petersfield Hospital, Alton and Gosport, to help make it possible for a patient to go home and remain safe there as soon as they should. 

Alice Fry works on Cedar Ward in Petersfield with NHS staff and says people shouldn't be in hospital because there is a problem in the house.

The 'Home to Hospital' Service is provided by Age Concern Hampshire, giving time to sort out problems - big and often small - that keep people in hospital when it's not medically necessary.

Alice also talks about other services they provide and why the charitable sector is able to help busy NHS staff and discuss concerns from people and their families and pass this onto the clinical team.
