Healthwatch Worcestershire
Welcome to Healthwatch Worcestershire
Welcome to your local healthwatch site. We are here to make sure your views on local health and social care services are heard
Healthwatch gives people a powerful voice locally and nationally. At a local level, Healthwatch Worcestershire works to help local people get the best out of their local health and social care services.
Whether it's improving them today or helping to shape them for tomorrow. Healthwatch Worcestershire is all about local voices being able to influence the delivery and design of local services. Not just people who use them, but anyone who might need to in future.
What is Healthwatch
Healthwatch is the new independent consumer champion created to gather and represent the views of the public. Healthwatch will play a role at both national and local level and will make sure that the views of the public and people who use services are taken into account.
What we do
Local Healthwatch will take on the work of the Local Involvement Networks (LINks) and will also: - represent the views of people who use services, carers and the public on the Health and Wellbeing boards set up by local authorities - provide a complaints signposting service from 2013 to support people who make a complaint about services - report concerns about the quality of health care to Healthwatch England, which can then recommend that the Care Quality Commission take action.
How we work
Every voice counts when it comes to shaping the future of health and social care, and when it comes to improving it for today. Everything that local Healthwatch does will bring the voice and influence of local people to the development and delivery of local services.
People need to feel that their local Healthwatch belongs to and reflects them and their local community. It needs to feel approachable, practical and dynamic and to act on behalf of local people.
