Staying Independent Survey
Have your say to improve support for people to remain independent!
NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin, Shropshire Council and Telford and Wrekin Council are reviewing two of our community services that support people to regain and maintain their independence.
- Community Equipment Loan Services – these services are provided by health and social care through assessment for equipment, such as beds, bath lifts, stand aids and toilet raisers to help people leave hospital safely and/or stay independent and mobile in their homes.
- Community Beds Services – a range of services that promote faster recovery from illness, prevent unnecessary admission to acute hospitals, support timely discharge from hospital and maximise independent living. The services are provided on a short-term basis, in hospital, or care home, usually after a stay in hospital following an illness or injury and before returning home.
We are inviting people to share their experiences and views by completing a short survey. Your feedback will inform our understanding of what matters to you and what you feel is most important, which in turn will enable us to improve our services. We want to hear from people who have used these services as well as those who haven’t but might in the future.
