9 What did the patients talk about? Comfort:..you have to call a nurse to get your milk or fruit open Information: They did the scan but nobody told us the results..it had been 2 days.. so it was really stressful The best thing: the constancy of the care The worst thing: It is very boring on the weekends no physio..there wasn t anyone the nurses could get (overnight) that had the authority to open the cast. Staff:..nurses are banging something out there at night so you get broken sleep...nurse Alana pulled me out of an emotional meltdown Treated as a person:..some of the younger social workers and nurses can be condescending Involved in own treatment:..i ve been left with choices, I haven t just been told that this is the way that it will be.

11 Consultant experience Up front clarity of role, expectations, conditions, and reporting set the relationship Effective support is essential (consultant won t have time to learn detailed administrative processes) A single responsibility for support is best Don t underestimate the work involved Flexible working is very useful Follow through is essential for credibility (commitment of Executives)

12 Executive Experience Advisory Consultant provides support to patient / family in process Wanted to hear it as it was, not what people thought I wanted to hear Consideration of our staff views Opportunity to provide direct feedback to the patient / family Follow through on actions and letters to patients

13 Staff responses to the process supported as a way to improve patient outcomes. not seen as punitive. not seen as disruptive in the wards. should be extended to more wards, and all Executive Directors. Advisory Consultant provides independence and credibility to the process. We need to have a real sense of what our patients are feeling

14 Responding to patient experience Review of bedside telephone placement Re assessment and transfer of a rehab patient Negotiation with suppliers for easy open milk and fruit containers Patient overnight leave policy review at rehab centres Review of overnight management of post operative patients Review of weekend and public holiday therapy hours

16 Where to from here?
