Together we're making health and social care better - Healthwatch Shropshire Annual Report 2022-23
The Annual report sets out how we have listened to people and worked with partners through the year to make a difference.
2023 marks a significant anniversary for Healthwatch, it is 10 years since the network was set up across England. At the beginning of 2023 we were again awarded the contract to continue to act as the health and social care champion in the county for another 3-5 years.
We have just published our annual report detailing how we have championed the voices of the thousands of Shropshire patients and service users we have heard from over the last year. Including
- Raising the struggles people face when seeking urgent help and calling for an ambulance
- Bringing experiences of Psychological Therapies to life to help the NHS improve services
- Highlighting the communication needs of people with disabilities and cognitive impairment
One of the highlights of the year for me was our in-person Annual Event at Shrewsbury Town Football Club. ‘One Chance’ brought together the public and professionals to talk about work being done in Shropshire to get care right for people towards the end of life.
