We know that experiencing trauma can have a big impact on many different parts of a person's life. This can include how comfortable they feel accessing healthcare.
There are many different kinds of trauma people can experience. This survey focuses on sexual trauma. If you have experienced sexual trauma, we would like to know if this has impacted your experiences of accessing care and treatment when using NHS services, and your experiences of accessing cancer screening.
Your responses to this survey are anonymous. We will use your feedback to work with the local NHS to improve how people who have experienced trauma are supported when visiting healthcare settings. The survey should take 10 - 15 minutes to complete.
If you prefer to complete the survey by speaking to someone by phone or in person we can arrange an appointment; please email engagement@healthwatchliverpool.co.uk or phone us on 0300 77 77 007.
We understand this is a sensitive and upsetting topic. If you need any support after completing this survey, the following services are available:
