Practice Feedback – Friends and Family.

The NHS Friends and Family Test (FFT) was created to help service providers and commissioners understand whether patients are happy with the service provided, or where improvements are needed. It’s a quick and anonymous way to give your views after receiving NHS care or treatment.

We welcome your feedback as this helps steer Alexander House Surgery to offering a better service to our patients. If you can spare the time we would appreciate you completing this short form.

FFT resources and guidance

You can email [email protected] if you have any questions about the FFT.

You can also watch the following FFT animations on YouTube:

NHS England has more information about the Friends and Family Test, including guidance for NHS providers and commissioners. It also has a range of promotional materials, which you can download.

On Friday the 19th January we will be using Accurx triage for online communication with patients. This will be replacing eConsult. Most patients will have already used Accurx when receiving or responding to SMS messages. We are making this change in response to feedback.

 

Accurx allows you, as the patient, to describe in your own words how we can help you. It also allows the team to have a much more open dialogue, ask more relevant questions and direct you to the most appropriate service. Those not wishing to use online methods will still have the same access via the telephones or by visiting reception and will be asked similar questions.

 

We would like to thank you for your support and patience in the interim.
