Rheumatology telephone advice line service survey

[Aribah-NRAS]

Below is a link to a short questionnaire developed by Midlands Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust in partnership with NRAS to share your experiences of using a rheumatology telephone advice line service. This information will be used to help us understand how telephone advice line services can be improved.

Many rheumatology units are finding it increasingly challenging to respond to telephone advice line calls which often results in long waits for patients to receive the advice and support they require. A recent national survey of nurses and pharmacists providing telephone advice line services has identified ways in which services could be improved. As these services are for people with arthritis it would be great to know the experiences of NRAS community that have used their local rheumatology telephone advice line services. forms.office.com/e/CMcC1Un4Kp

Done and ours works really well. I’ve no issues at all. But only used once and I’m not going to say why as it’s not in my view relevant. Consultant rang back next day.
