    This guidance from the Irish Health Services Executive (HSE) aims to help healthcare staff improve venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention in hospitals. Hospital-acquired blood clots, or VTE, are the most common preventable cause of in-hospital death. Assessing patients’ risk of VTE and bleeding and choosing the appropriate thromboprophylaxis such as medicines or compression stockings early in their hospital admission reduces their risk of developing a blood clot.

    This blog published by the Irish Health Service Executive (HSE) tells the story of Mark, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia 15 years ago, aged 15. It describes the issues he and his mother faced in getting him the care he needed, including being treated inappropriately and without dignity during emergency department visits, problems accessing ongoing community support and a reluctance to assist him with reducing his medication dosage. It also highlights how his family were not included in care plans and treatment decisions, and their needs as carers were rarely considered.
