We would like to hear from professional home care workers – paid staff who support people in their own homes to live safely and comfortably. This support could include:
- Help with personal care such as washing, showering and dressing.
- Practical help such as cooking, shopping, and cleaning
- Companionship and support to access the community
- Medication support.
Our short survey asks about your experiences with infection prevention at work, flu vaccinations, and which area of Derbyshire you work in. We’ll also ask a few optional questions about you to help us understand how different groups experience health services.
The survey should take about 10 minutes to complete. Your feedback will help us share with Derbyshire’s Public Health Team what is working well and where changes could lead to better outcomes for everyone involved in home care.
At the end, you can choose to enter a prize draw to win a £25 shopping voucher. The draw will take place at the end of October 2025 – just leave your contact details on the survey if you’d like to enter.
Thank you for taking the time to share your views.
