Hi Hilda,
Absolutely. Thank you.
While this group is made up of members across NHS Wales, there is a Community of Practice for Climate Change forming in the new year within Public Health Wales for their staff. This sounds like the ambitions and goals are very similar to what you are doing. Maybe some connections there are worthwhile?
A few of…Read more

Hello!
A question asked on twitter from a fellow Q member – “Do you know of a PREM that captures experiences of waiting in healthcare?”
I have posted this in our regional SIG, but I thought it topical and someone here might have a recommendation or advice on something tried and tested.
It’s currently a short answer yes, long answer no from…Read more

Ok Q Cymru, let’s see what a hive mind can do.
A question asked on twitter – “Do you know of a PREM that captures experiences of waiting in healthcare?”
Short answer yes, long answer no from me.
There are many. A quick search and I found these, with one I thought would crop up and didn’t-

I should add, this has been asked by a fellow Q Cymru member. We’d really appreciate any advice or opinions on what has worked well or what to use wisely.
Anything would make a big difference and save time by ground the rest of the community has already covered. -
Hi Andy
Not really a PREM, but if thinking about waiting lists then looking at patient safety incidents can be important. This might be things like cardiac deaths while awaiting surgery, or significant deterioration in a patient’s condition that could have been avoided if treatment was given within target timescales. These types of incidents can…Read more

Hi Matt,
Good to hear from you. Hope you are well?
This is a great point. Part of the work I am helping with currently includes looking at what is happening while they wait, including other services that are accessed because the patient is waiting, rather than being complimentary to it. Previous areas with this sort of work was data rich from…Read more
