The Robert Mayne Day Hospital (RMDH), was established in St James’s Hospital in 1988, for patients aged 65 years and above. Our primary aim is to improve and maintain the patients’ functional status in order to sustain and support their ability to continue to reside safely in the community. Our main goals are Rapid Access, Facilitating Early Discharge and Admission Avoidance.
All patients will have a comprehensive geriatric assessment undertaken by the RMDH medical and nursing teams at the time of their initial appointment. Patients will then be referred to the relevant multidisciplinary services they require within RMDH. These services will be provided only on an appointment basis.
If English is not your first language and you require an interpreter, please contact the service before your appointment to let us know and we will be happy to help.
