From Mid and South essex ICS…

Dear resident

Have you recently been in hospital, helped a relative who was discharged, or know someone who has been through this experience? Your feedback could help make the discharge process better for everyone in mid and south Essex.
We’re collecting experiences from people across our community – whether you were the patient yourself, supported a family member through discharge, or are completing this on behalf of someone unable to respond themselves.

Why this matters
Leaving hospital is a critical time in a patient’s healthcare journey. The transition from hospital to home can be challenging, and having the right support can prevent readmissions. Clear communication about medications and follow-up care is essential.

Your personal experiences help us identify gaps that statistics alone cannot show. Even small changes based on your feedback can make a big difference to someone’s care.

Taking part
If you or someone you know has been discharged from hospital since 1 August 2024, we invite you to complete our survey. It takes about 10-15 minutes and will remain open until 30 April 2025.
Do you know others who might have relevant experiences with hospitals run by Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust? Please forward this information to them or share the survey link.
