Our Patient Information Point (PIP) can provide you with information and about illnesses, health or social care services, or where you can get support for many different health conditions.
Our aim is to help you better understand what choices you have, so that you can manage your own health, as well as helping you make plans about the future.
We’re based at West Berkshire Community Hospital, opposite the main reception area.
We offer a quiet room where you can read leaflets and guides, or talk to one of our PIP Volunteers who can guide you to the right support websites and apps.
