How to Check If Someone Is Hospitalized in London

Due to patient confidentiality, UK hospitals cannot disclose patient information without consent. However, you can try these methods:

Online

• NHS Choices Patient Finder: Available to registered NHS website users (search by name, DOB, NHS number).
• PatientSearch UK: Free service for patients who have consented to be listed.

Phone

• NHS 111: Call and ask to be connected to the hospital switchboard.
• Hospital Switchboard Direct: Call the hospital's main number and ask for the patient information department.

In Person

• Visit the hospital's Patient Information Desk.

Note: Hospitals will not release information if the patient has not consented.
