We Listen; We Act.
The 2024 patient satisfaction survey results are now in.
At Personal Homecare Pharmacy, we genuinely value our patients' feedback and are committed to listening to your needs and acting on them. We want to extend our gratitude to all the patients who took the time to participate in our 2024 patient satisfaction survey. Your insights are essential in helping us maintain and improve the healthcare experience we provide. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.
Firstly, what is the patient satisfaction survey, and how do we use it?
The patient satisfaction survey consists of standardised questions created by the NHS, aimed at allowing patients to provide feedback on various aspects of the services we offer. We use this feedback to assess our performance and to identify areas for improvement. The survey results are shared anonymously with key NHS stakeholders, helping them monitor our performance as well. Patients can rest assured that we are continuously listening, learning, and are dedicated to delivering an unparalleled service experience that truly exceeds our patients' expectations!
The 2024 patient satisfaction survey received over 600 responses, indicating strong engagement. Overall, 91% of respondents rated their homecare service experience positively, with an average score of 4.56 out of 5.
Key strengths highlighted by patients include:
Customer Service Excellence – The helpfulness and courtesy of the customer service team received a 4.63 average score, with 93% satisfaction.
Reliable Deliveries – Accuracy, completeness, and punctuality of supplies scored highly, with an average of 4.62 and 93% satisfaction.
Helpful Delivery Staff – Patients found delivery personnel courteous and supportive, rating them 4.50 on average, with a 92% satisfaction rate.
Clear Information & Support – Patients appreciated the information provided about therapy and homecare services, scoring an average of 4.15 (81% satisfaction).
Efficient Problem Resolution – Answering queries and concerns was well-rated at 4.32, with 86% satisfaction.
Overall, our results demonstrate a high level of patient satisfaction, with key service areas excelling in reliability, support, and professionalism. We can also see some areas that have scope for improvement, and our team collectively worked to implement some changes to drive improvement, which delivers greater performance.
What have we implemented?
We designed and developed three new portals: one serving patients, one for our NHS pharmacy colleagues, and one for our nursing services.
• The new patient portal allows patients to choose their delivery date and location, also providing access to information and educational materials 24/7
• The new portal for the NHS allows each commissioning NHS trust to refer patients quickly and to access their own patients’ medication dispensing/delivery and invoice details in one secure place
• The new nursing portal allows faster access to patient information for the nursing team
All are designed to improve operational efficiencies, which in turn provides an improved service to patients and their carers.
Listening to our customers' views is important to us. This is some of the feedback we have received from patients and our NHS Colleagues
