We need your feedback

Across the Harrogate and Rural District area we are constantly trying to improve the quality of care we deliver to dying patients, and the care given to their families and friends. To find out more about this, we ask for the views of people who have been close to someone who has died, about the care the patient received in the last days of life, and the support their family and friends received. If you wish to provide such feedback, please follow the link below to the Harrogate and Rural District Bereaved Relatives Survey: www.hdft.nhs.uk/survey. All information entered is sent to Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust, the organisation running the survey, and will be strictly confidential. No one will be identifiable in the report produced. There is absolutely no obligation to complete the survey; it is entirely voluntary, or you can ask someone else who may be better placed to complete it if you prefer. Should you have any questions or concerns about the care you or your family member or friend received and would like to speak to someone, please contact a member of the organisation or healthcare team which looked after them, or call the Harrogate District Hospital Patient Experience Team on 01423 555499 and they will be able to direct your call appropriately.
