The Royal Sussex County Hospital is a teaching hospital and medical students, under the supervision of trained staff, are often involved in the care of patients.
We will ask you if you are happy for students to be involved in your care. If you do not wish to be seen by a student, please let your nurse or doctor know.
If you do agree to be seen by a student, decisions about your treatment and care will still be made by trained staff, not by the student.
The department is committed to improving our services and we would be grateful for any feedback you may have.
