    The results from the 2022 British Social Attitudes survey made for very difficult reading for those of us working in the NHS right now. Overall satisfaction with the NHS is at the lowest level ever recorded and similarly satisfaction with individual services is at record lows across the board, but it was satisfaction with A&E services that saw the sharpest fall in 2022.  Kelly Ameneshoa, an Emergency Medicine Doctor working across South London and Surrey, reflects on the findings.

    Discrimination and inequality are bigger factors for staff wanting to leave acute trusts than burnout, new analysis of this year’s NHS staff survey has found. Researchers at LCP compared 12 summary indicators within the survey to answers on intention to leave, to build a “relative importance model” to explain “nearly 85% of the variation in intention to leave”. LCP said: “Approximately 30 per cent of that explained variance is attributable to the diversity and equality score (compared to less than 10 per cent attributable to the burnout summary indicator score).” Natalie Tikhonovsky, an analyst in LCP’s Health Analytics team, said: “Our analysis reveals a grim picture of low satisfaction levels and higher staff turnover rates currently facing the NHS acute sector. Understanding what is driving this will be key to the success of the government’s new workforce plan and to the overall aim of reducing steadily increasing wait lists.” Read full story (paywalled) Source: HSJ, 28 April 2023

    Trust in care homes has slumped, leaving half of the British public lacking confidence that friends or family would be well looked after. Nationwide polling for the Guardian revealed 9 out of 10 older people believe there are not enough care staff, and half have lost confidence in the standard of care homes since the start of the pandemic. The survey conducted by Ipsos this month follows a doubling in public dissatisfaction in the NHS and exposes deepening fears about the fitness of a social care sector that had its weaknesses exposed by Covid-19, which claimed 36,000 lives in care homes in England alone. The Relatives and Residents Association (RRA) said the polling tallied with calls to its helpline about the “harm and anguish caused by poor care and frustration at the inconsistency in standards”. “We must weed out the poor providers and invest in skills – care workers must become our most valued workers, not the least,” said Helen Wildbore, the RRA’s chief executive. “Tomorrow, any one of us could need them.” Read full story Source: The Guardian, 24 April 2023

    The occupational therapy (OT) workforce is under huge pressure. Increased demand coupled with workforce shortages is challenging OTs’ capacity to provide essential support to people whose lives are impacted by long term health conditions and disability. In November 2022, the Royal College of Occupational Therapists surveyed OT practitioners across the UK about the workplace issues they’re facing now, and how these affect the services they deliver to the public. They also asked how practitioners are impacted personally, including whether they intend to continue working as OTs. The challenges shared by over 2,600 respondents have significant implications for the resilience of the current and future OT workforce, and the people who use OT services.

    The National Centre for Social Research’s (NatCen’s) British Social Attitudes (BSA) survey has been conducted annually since 1983. Each year the survey asks people what it's like to live in Britain and what they think about how Britain is run, including measuring levels of public satisfaction with the health and care services.  The most recent survey was carried out between 7 September and 30 October 2022 and asked a nationally representative sample (across England, Scotland and Wales) of 3,362 people about their satisfaction with the National Health Service (NHS) and social care services overall, and 1,187 people about their satisfaction with specific NHS services, as well as their views on NHS funding.  This report highlights the key findings of the survey, which was jointly sponsored this year by The King's Fund and the Nuffield Trust.

    More than three quarters of NHS workers are seriously considering leaving their jobs amid the ongoing strain on the health service. According to research from the worker-led network Organise – which surveyed 2,546 NHS staff in March – 78.5% are thinking about packing it all in. Only a fifth (21.5%) said they had no plan to give up their NHS job any time soon. And the survey shows this sentiment is shared across a range of professions within the health service – with nurses, healthcare assistants, paramedics, doctors, health visitors and more all struggling with their jobs right now. This comes after years of public concerns about the longevity of the health service, amid funding cuts, staff shortages and burnout – not to mention the additional strain from the Covid pandemic. The findings also show that in the last three years: 79% of respondents experienced stress 62% reported anxiety 55% reported burnout. More than half (55%) of respondents said they needed to take time off from their jobs as a result, with a quarter saying this meant a month or more away from work.

    US clinical and nonclinical healthcare workers have an upward-trending perception of safety culture, but physicians and leaders do not agree, according to a Press Ganey report. Press Ganey, a US company that focuses on patient satisfaction surveys, found in its annual safety culture trends report that senior management perceptions of all safety culture metrics are lower. Overall safety scores are down 0.04 points, prevention and reporting decreased 0.02 points, pride and reputation declined 0.05 points, and resources and teamwork are down 0.04 points. The report analysed 2022 data from 813,900 healthcare workers across 194 systems and 3,279 facilities. "Senior management safety culture scores are typically higher than those of operational management, suggesting a more positive perspective among those at the highest levels of provider organizations," the report said. "Yet the continued downward trajectory of senior management scores stands out as significant." Among physicians, pride and reputation fell 0.12 points. Their perceptions of overall safety declined 0.06 points, prevention and reporting is down 0.03 points, and resources and teamwork is down 0.05 points. Other healthcare employees had higher perceptions of these metrics except for pride and reputation. Also, "fewer employees today say they would recommend their organization for care than in previous years," Press Ganey found. Read full story Source: Becker's Hospital Review, 21 March 2023

    In this blog, Patient Safety Learning looks in detail at the results of the NHS Staff Survey 2022, focusing on responses relating to reporting, speaking up and acting on safety concerns. It includes the following key points: It is difficult to imagine other safety critical industries would deem these results acceptable. Nearly half of all respondents did not feel confident their organisation would address their concerns about unsafe clinical practice. It is hugely concerning that over 40% of respondents could not say that they would be treated fairly if involved in a patient safety incident. This could significantly undermine the willingness of staff to raise concerns, with significant consequences for patient safety. There needs to be greater urgency to improve the safety culture in the health service. NHS England needs to recognise the scale of this challenge and provide clarity on how it will work with organisations to tackle this. NHS England, working in partnership with the National Guardian and the Care Quality Commission, should bring forward as a matter of urgency robust and specific commitments to drive forward the work of improving the safety culture in the NHS.

    GPs in the UK are under extreme strain and public satisfaction with general practice has plummeted. Pressures on general practice are not unique to the UK and GPs around the world are contending with the impact of the pandemic on their patients and working lives. The 2022 Commonwealth Fund survey compares perspectives from GPs across 10 high‑income countries. The survey asked GPs’ views about their working lives and wellbeing, quality of care and how services are delivered. The Health Foundation analysed the survey data to understand the experiences of GPs in the UK and how they compare to other countries.

    This report summarises the results of the Patients Association's Winter survey 2023, which received 1,933 online responses. The survey aimed to help develop understanding about the experiences of patients during a period of high pressure for the NHS. In addition to the usual winter pressures, the NHS experienced a backlog of care exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, alongside years of underinvestment in the NHS, the absence of a long-term workforce plan and long-standing issues in the social care system.

    NHS staff are significantly less comfortable raising concerns and are less confident in their organisation to address them, the service’s annual staff survey has revealed. The 2022 results, with a response rate of 46%, showed a decline on all measures relating to raising concerns about clinical safety and speaking up more generally, with the greatest deterioration seen in the percentage of staff who would feel secure raising concerns about unsafe clinical practice. Helen Hughes, chief executive of charity Patient Safety Learning, warned an “alarmingly high” number of staff could not say they felt safe raising concerns. Ms Hughes continued: “If we are to effectively learn from and prevent future incidents of avoidable harm, staff need to feel safe to raise and discuss patient safety incidents. “This year’s staff survey results are a clear indication that too often this is still not the case. This is reinforced by the experiences and testimonies of many whistleblowers and the findings of numerous inquiries into major patient safety scandals.” She added there were a lack of “tangible measures” in place to create a safety culture where staff feel safe to speak up and called for “more resources to support improvement and evaluate their impact”.

    The adoption of AI tools to simplify processes and workflows is slowly occurring across all industries, including healthcare — though patients largely disagree with clinicians using those tools when providing care, the Pew Research Center survey found. The potential for AI tools to diminish personal connections between patients and providers is a key concern, according to the survey, which included responses from over 11,000 adults in the USA collected in December. Patients also fear their health records could become less secure. Respondents, however, acknowledged potential benefits, including that AI could reduce the number of mistakes providers make. They also expressed optimism about AI’s potential impact on racial and ethnic biases in healthcare settings, even as the technology has been criticised for exacerbating those issues. Among respondents who believe racial biases are an issue in healthcare, about half said they think the tools would reduce the problem, while 15% said it would make it worse and about 30% said it would stay the same.

    This report by The Queen's Nursing Institute presents the findings of a survey of community nurses (also known as district nurses) conducted in 2022 to look at how digital technologies are used in community nursing. The survey found that: 43.1% respondents reported problems with lack of compatibility between different computer systems, compared to 32.7% in 2017 87% respondents reported issues with mobile connectivity, compared to 85% in 2017 53%.respondents reported problems with device battery life, compared to 29.5% in 2017 The report concludes that overall, the community nursing workforce has a high level of digital literacy and that poor user experience frequently appears to be around design and function rather than a lack of literacy or enthusiasm for technology. The workforce also has an appetite for high functioning technology and can see the potential of new applications, for example, in managing wound care or long-term conditions.

    Fewer women who gave birth in NHS maternity services last year had a positive experience of care compared to 5 years ago, according to a major new survey. The Care Quality Commission’s (CQC) latest national maternity survey report reveals what almost 21,000 women who gave birth in February 2022 felt about the care they received while pregnant, during labour and delivery, and once at home in the weeks following the arrival of their baby. The findings show that while experiences of maternity care at a national level were positive overall for the majority of women, they have deteriorated in the last 5 years. In particular, there was a notable decline in the number of women able to get help from staff when they needed it. Many of the key findings from the survey include a drop in positive interactions with staff and lack of choices about the birth. Just over two-thirds of those surveyed (69%) reported 'definitely' having confidence and trust in the staff delivering their antenatal care. Results were higher for staff involved in labour and birth (78%). In addition, while the majority of women (86%) surveyed in 2022 said they were 'always' spoken to in a way they could understand during labour and birth, this was a decline from 90% who said this in 2019. The proportion of respondents who felt that they were 'always' treated with kindness and understanding while in hospital after the birth of their baby remained relatively high at 71%, however had fallen from 74% in 2017. Just under a fifth of women who responded to the survey (19%) said they were not offered any choices about where to have their baby. Also, less than half (41%) of those surveyed said their partner or someone else close to them was able to stay with them as much as they wanted during their stay in hospital.
