  1. Statistics tell you what people think about your services. Stories tell you why people feel the way they do about their experience. Patient stories are crucial to providing and commissioning the best services possible, and in understanding how to improve the patient journey.
  2. Gathering qualitative information is traditionally expensive and resource intensive. It takes time and money for a member of staff to interview patients about the service they have received. Care Opinion acts as an easy, cost effective and efficient tool for collecting and engaging with stories.With our online, postal and telephone feedback service, you will reach a wide and more representative range of people.
  3. The House of Commons Health Select Committee recently noted that it saw "great value in providers constantly viewing the comments left about them on websites such as Care Opinion… ...the Committee strongly supports the use of tools that allow patients to give feedback anonymously and that can demonstrate that changes have been made to service provision based on feedback received.” Additionally, the Cabinet Office cited Care Opinion as an example of best practice in the government consultation on transparency and open data.
  4. Our team have seven years experience of working with patient feedback. Care Opinion can help you get 100% out of this rich source of information. From the stories posted online we can help you train staff, generate reports, motivate your workforce and provide evidence about quality of your services, e.g. for CQUIN.
