in 2020 100% of respondents are happy with their loved one’s care
We’ve all faced some very challenging times this year and we’re very grateful to all the family members who have patiently waited to see their loved ones and have co-operated with our garden visiting protocols. They have entrusted us with the care of their loved ones and we are endeavouring to provide a safe, supportive and happy environment for all of our service users, despite all the restrictions.
Our annual questionnaire provides a structured framework for receiving feedback from family members about the specialist residential care that we provide. Everyone’s needs are different, but our survey helps us to see an overall picture and reflect on any improvements we can make. This year in particular has made us rethink exactly what we do and how we do it.
The questionnaires are optional and can be anonymous, so we may only receive a small number of replies. However, we take all of the feedback very seriously and are very grateful to the family members who complete the questionnaires.
