NHS Tayside Charitable Foundation Launches "Call and Deliver" Service to Brighten Patient Stays at Ninewells Hospital

NHS Tayside Charitable Foundation is pleased to announce the launch of its new "Call & Deliver" service, designed to bring comfort and happiness to patients at Ninewells Hospital. This convenient service allows relatives and friends of patients to easily send gifts or essential items directly to the wards, bridging the gap when in-person visits may be difficult.

"We understand that a hospital stay can be challenging, and sometimes visiting in person isn't always possible,"said Shelley McCarthy, Charity Chief Officer at NHS Tayside Charitable Foundation. "Our 'Call and Deliver' service offers a simple and thoughtful way for loved ones to show they care, delivering a touch of comfort and brightening a patient's day."

How "Call and Deliver" Works:

The process is designed for ease and convenience:

1. Browse the Selection: Visit the dedicated Call and Deliver webpage at https://nhstayside.foundation/call-and-deliver to explore a range of products, from comforting treats to practical essentials. Discover specially curated gifts for newborns and children, ensuring even the youngest patients feel loved and supported.

2. Place Your Order: Call the dedicated hotline at Monday to Friday between 10:00 am and 3:00 pm on 01382 633917. Friendly staff will assist with order placement, ensuring the perfect items are chosen for the recipient.

3. Make Your Payment: Secure payment is processed over the phone.

4. Delivery to the Ward: Dedicated volunteers will promptly deliver the selected gifts or items directly to the patient's ward.
