If you have a learning disability or autism, Healthwatch Rotherham want to hear from you. They want to learn about how you feel GPs, hospitals and dentists care for you. They want to know who is getting things right and providing you with great care, and who isn’t so good. Where you feel care is not good, what needs to be better? This survey is to give you a voice to tell health services what you feel good care looks like. They can then make changes so that they can make care better.
If you work or care for someone with a learning disability or autism who is unable to access the survey unaided, Healthwatch Rotherham would really appreciate you helping them by entering their answers for them.
They are also keen to hear from healthcare professionals about their experiences and how they feel that their workplace meets the needs of those with learning disabilities and/or autism. They would love to hear any examples of good practice as well as any concerns you may have. They don’t need to know your name or where you work, just the area of healthcare you work in.
The closing date for the consultation is the end of May 2024.
