Whatever your reason...
...it’s your right to choose your hospital
Did you know...
You have the right to choose to go to any hospital in England.
If your doctor refers you or a member of your family to hospital, you have the right to choose which hospital treats you, no matter where it is in the country. By choosing a local Sheffield hospital you are still exercising your right to choose. Other factors affecting your choice could include: parking arrangements; infection rates; a personal preference. It’s your choice – just ask.
