Continuity of Care Patient Survey

There is lots of evidence that seeing the same health professional can improve patient care. We are keen to know what patients understand by the term "continuity of care" and how important it is to them.

This survey will only take a couple of minutes and will provide us with valuable data.

Thank you.

Why We Use a Telephone-First System

Our telephone-first approach helps us offer more appointments each day. Telephone consultations take less time than in-person appointments, which means each GP can offer up to 32 appointments per day, compared with 24 if all appointments were face-to-face.
This enables us to help more patients, more quickly.

We regularly review and audit our appointment system. Our most recent audit showed:
• Only 1 in 4 telephone consultations required a follow-up face-to-face appointment.
• Waiting times were significantly shorter with the telephone-first system — even for patients who needed a follow up in-person review.
