Learning Disability Liaison Nurses have been shown to improve hospital experiences and this is an emerging role in Ireland. This research qualitatively explored the impact of a Clinical Nurse Specialist Acute Hospital Liaison from the perspective of staff in an intellectual disability community organisation. Participants identified significant challenges with supporting people attending hospitals including accessing and understanding information, anxieties and not being prepared for transitions through the hospital. The findings demonstrate the introduction of this role is a supportive, positive step with reports of improved information sharing, feeling better prepared and alleviating anxieties related to supporting someone in hospital. The findings clearly identify that this role has considerable benefits when set in a community organisation. This role has had a positive impact on service users and staff when interacting with hospitals, providing evidence of the value of this role in Ireland and also of they having a specialist qualification in the role.
