Dear Mr Hamad,

ENT Appointment

I am pleased to inform you that an appointment has been arranged for you at Royal Preston Hospital with Mr Jayaram's team on

Date: Wednesday 17 April 2024

Time: 08:00
Reception Point: ENT Clinic

Use the hospital site entrance that is opposite St Clares Church on Sharoe Green Lane. Follow the road round to the left. ENT Clinic is on your right.
The nearest parking is Car Park G.

The Trust uses an automated number plate recognition system called ANPR and payment for car parking is required on exit via one of the payment
kiosks. Car parking at our hospital is limited so please allow yourself enough time for parking to ensure you arrive at your appointment on time. If
possible please attend your appointment using other means of transport. If you do have to attend by car, please see the further car parking information
on our website before attending: https://www.lancsteachinghospitals.nhs.uk/car-parking.

If you have a query or need advice about parking options and charges please contact Carparkhelpdesk@lthtr.nhs.uk.

Blue Badge Concessionary Charge Information

From April 2021, the Government has introduced new guidance on the provision of free car parking for certain groups of hospital patients and visitors. For
those patients whom possess a blue badge you will need to take your badge to the General office one time to register for the free concessionary parking
at either Chorley District Hospital between the times of 8.30am and 3pm Monday to Friday or Royal Preston Hospital 9am to 4pm Monday to Friday.

Out of these hours a scanned copy of the Blue badge and registration details of the vehicle can be sent to carparkhelpdesk@lthtr.nhs.uk to register for
the Blue Badge free parking concession.

Please bring this letter with you.

More than 52,087 patients did not come to their appointments last year, which delays treatment, increases waiting time and failing to attend your
appointment may result in you being referred back to your GP. If your appointment is not convenient or you don't need it anymore, please let us know as
soon as possible.

If an interpreter is required, please contact the department using the details above. The use of family members, carers or friends as interpreters is
discouraged by NHS England and the Trust.
It is hospital policy to offer all patients a chaperone for any intimate examination.

Yours sincerely
Outpatient Services Manager
