What it is

An item found on a ward — a phone, jewellery, a wallet — is logged against the patient it likely belongs to and where it was found, and stays on the register until it is claimed or, past the hospital’s own holding period, handed to the police with a receipt.

How it works

The usual shape of a queue & board app. LostAndFound’s own steps are written from its screen when it ships.

  1. It arrivesA new item lands on the board — from a booking, a referral or a colleague.
  2. Work itAssign it, move it along, see who is waiting and for how long.
  3. Close itDone items leave the board and stay in the record.

Rules it keeps

What it does not do, by design. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.

It does not verify ownership beyond what is reasonable — a claim is recorded with who took it and when; it is not a legal determination of ownership.
