Clinic room helps get patients home sooner

Thanks to donations from our supporters, we recently funded a special clinic room for Harvey 2 ward at City Hospital. The new room allows patients to be seen as outpatients during their recovery, rather than being admitted to the ward – meaning they can get back to the comfort of their own home sooner. Find out how donations are making a difference.
