Policies

How do I find what I need to know?

The Trust publishes all of its policies on this website. The list of policies below are links which will open each document.

Within each policy, the index page is a set of hyperlinks that take you directly to the section you require. You can click into any policy and right click anywhere in the document to open “find”. Type in the word you want to look for and the search tool will take you to every place in the policy in which that word is mentioned.

The policies contain links. These will take staff to the forms, leaflets and posters that they may need to deliver effective patient care.

We are aware that the documents on this page may not be accessible for all. We will be creating accessible versions of the documents as they are reviewed however in the meantime, if you need a document we’ve published in a different format, please email lpft.communications@nhs.net or call 01522 309194
