Patient feedback - we are listening
The Trust is committed to providing a first-class service to all our patients. Your feedback is vital to us so that we can improve the areas that need improving and make sure we keep doing the things we are doing right.
Please tell us about your experience through our online survey here
Here at Mid Yorkshire our ambition is to achieve excellent patient experience each and every time. Patients, carers, friends and family are welcome to leave feedback at any point.Please tell us about your experience through our online survey.
The Friends and Family Test question asks “Overall, how was your experience of our service?” and our survey gives the option for you to leave free text feedback as well as rating your experience.
The comments left, whether on an individual, team or service level, promote ideas for improvement, help celebrate good practice and raise morale.
Feedback via the Friends and Family Test is anonymous and can be given in the following ways:
