Bereaved Carers Survey – Results are in!
We are delighted to share the results of our recent Bereaved Carers Survey, which aimed to understand people’s experience of the quality of care their relative/friend received in the last days or hours of life across different health care settings in Leeds including hospital, hospices, care homes and their own homes. Respondents provided feedback on the place/environment where their relative or friend had died and how satisfied they were with the care around symptom management, religious/cultural support, privacy, dignity and personal care.
Overall there were high levels of satisfaction with care provided across all settings especially in relation to management of pain and other symptoms, and privacy and dignity. Areas where improvements could be made have been highlighted and shared within each organisation and action plans have been developed. We’d like to thank everyone that took part and Healthwatch and St Gemma’s Academic Unit for Palliative Care for their support in analysing the results. Click here to view the report. |
