Healthwatch Lincolnshire has strategically chosen to focus on respiratory health, for the second quarter of 2024, driven by a commitment to amplify underrepresented voices in healthcare discussions. The decision aims to broaden engagement across diverse areas, fostering a more inclusive dialogue on health issues and aligning with the organisation's goal of addressing health inequalities in Lincolnshire.
As well as listening to patients' experiences of health and care services, we are also keen to understand the views of those who work in these services.
At Healthwatch Lincolnshire, we want to gain insight into the experiences of professionals working in services that provide support for individuals navigating:
Asthma (both child and adult)
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
Long COVID
Other respiratory conditions
This short survey explores:
