Feedback on your experience of end of life care of your family member, partner or friend
Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust considers End of Life Care to be a priority and receiving feedback from you helps us to understand what we are doing right and where we need to improve. We have included a link below to a questionnaire that focuses on the care that your family member, partner or friend received in their last few days of life. It also asks you to consider and feedback on your experience during that time.
We recognise that reading the questionnaire may bring back strong memories and emotions and completing it may be difficult. Therefore, if you do wish to complete the questionnaire, please do so at a time when you feel ready.
The questionnaire can be accessed by clicking here.
