The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has recently released its Urgent and Emergency Care Survey for 2022. The findings reveal notable changes in patient experiences compared to past years.
Key highlights:
- Overall, patients’ experiences with urgent and emergency care services have deteriorated.
- The most significant decline was observed in Type 1 services. Here, responses to all questions about the quality of care indicated a downturn.
- On a brighter note, Type 3 services continue to receive positive feedback in certain areas. For instance, patients felt that health professionals actively listened to them.
