Annual Report 2015-16

Report - 30 June 2016

With the help and support of our volunteers, staff and Board members, we have exceeded our expectations in making sure the voices of Dudley people are heard in the design and delivery of local health and care services.

Summary

In addition to our main Healthwatch duties we have also been working towards five priorities that were set by you: Carers, Children and Young People, Dudley Group NHS Foundation Trust, Mental Health and Urgent Care. 

Key outcomes

  • 2,231 people have taken part in our surveys.
  • We have represented you on 19 influential panels and boards.
  • We have trained  59 new Community Information Champions empowering people to share information about health and social care services with their community.

“It’s reassuring to have an independent local organisation that listens to our views about health and care and takes forward what we say." 

-Dudley resident
