Report: experiences of attending Southmead A&E during the COVID-19 pandemic
North Bristol NHS Trust asked us to carry out a survey with people attending A&E at Southmead Hospital. We found that the management of people's long-term conditions in the community needs to improve, to reduce some of the pressure on A&E.
We are the independent champion for people who use health and social care services.
Healthwatch South Gloucestershire is here to make sure that those running services, and the government, put people at the heart of care. The more people share their experiences of health or social care, the more these services can understand what works and what doesn't.
"Very impressed with the service we received from Sirona's falls clinic. The service was very efficient and thorough, and the aftercare was excellent."
