Hospital to home

Patient information videos

We know it’s sometimes difficult to remember all the information you’re given at hospital, so we’ve created these videos to demonstrate how to administer medication and continue hospital cares at home.

You can watch demonstration videos on giving medication, managing a feeding tube, managing a stoma, looking after vascular access devices, home chemotherapy and taking care of yourself.

If you have any questions be sure to ask your healthcare team.

 We wish to thank all the staff and patients of the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital who gave so generously of their time and experience to help with the production of these videos.
