Feedback updated 10 Apr 2015

We asked

Citizens that have been effected by a fall, slip or trip about thier experience to understand the types of falls, when and how they occured and whether the services available are being accessed and aiding citizens with their falls related recovery.

You said

Better follow up and more efficient referral services are needed to reduce waiting times and anxiety of citizens. Barriers and inconsistencies with the levels of support available and offered. There is generally a lack of awareness of falls services available to citizens who want better and easier access to appropriate services. Better promotion and communication of what is available to support them.

We did

This information will be used to influence and develope a Falls Strategy for Birmingham, with emphasis on supporting the needs of citizens.

Overview

Falls and fractures prevention is a key priority for Birmingham Public Health.  It is important to capture the views of our citizens, carers and family members that have been affected by a fall or fracture.  This questionnaire is part of a wider consultation and understanding of how we can improve your experience of the services you used/are using. The questionnaire below will enable us to gain your views about what is happening at a local level and help us develop effective services to meet the requirements of those most at need. It will also provide us with the opportunity to understand your experiences of the wide variety of organisations and groups across the city.

Please help us by filling in this questionnaire if you are aged over 60 years or over and have had a fall within the last 3 years.

Thank you for taking the time to complete this information, your views are important to us.
