DEMO: Health & Care services for you - post COVID-19
We want to take this opportunity to ‘lock in’ beneficial changes that we’ve collectively brought about throughout the pandemic. This may include things such as backing local initiative and flexibility; enhanced local system working; strong clinical leadership; flexible and remote working where appropriate; and rapid scaling of new technology-enabled service delivery options such as digital consultations.
We want to to hear from our staff and our communities to understand what we should keep, what we should tailor and what perhaps has not been so good.
This space has been set up to explore some of those opportunities:
- Share your ideas of new initiatives at work or in the community
- Tell us about your personal experiences of accessing services by answering our online survey
- Have you linked with any community groups/networks? Perhaps you can pin these on our map
- Join the conversation in our discussion forum about the benefits and pitfalls of the digital world in lockdown
- Tell us your patient stories about NHS services during lockdown
- What is your preferred method of having a GP appointment? Vote in our poll now!
-
Share your ideas of new initiatives at work or in the community.
- What would you do differently?

- How can the NHS become a better place?

Having drive through appointments for children's immunisations
Being contacted twice in the run up to the appointment to ensure we knew about where to go, who should come, and what immunisations my child could have to reduce the number of appointments we needed to attend at the clinic. really reassuring contact from practice nurses

Continue the partnership working!
The NHS and social care can work as one organisation with a shared message - COVID-19 has proved this. We need to keep this partnership work and not go back to the old ways with organisational barriers and politics.

Virtual hospital out-patients appointments
I had an outpatient appointment with my clinician during coronavirus by phone and it worked really well. In fact I think the discussion was more in depth. They followed this up with an email to summarise our discussion and rehab exercises. So much better than the hassle of going to the hospital!
