Residents are being asked to share their views about Grantham Hospital and United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust (ULHT) to help with future improvements.

ULHT is asking people to make their opinions known via an online survey - you don't have to be a patient, you just need to have a view.

The trust wants to understand the public's perception and how people form opinions about Grantham and District Hospital and the wider ULHT, with the aim of making improvements.

The survey is anonymous and, the trust says, your views are important in helping improve how local hospitals care for patients.

ULHT Chief Executive, Jan Sobieraj, said: "Quality of patient care is our number one priority and this survey helps us to understand public opinion.

"As we have built on the quality of our services our Care Quality Commission (CQC) rating has improved and our reputation for caring and safer patient care is growing as a result.

"However, there is still much more that we can do to make it better.

"Before we can build on our reputation, we want to find out what our public think, how trustworthy and credible we are, if we spend money wisely and if people think we provide high quality care.

"It is important that we measure our reputation, as it affects our ability to respond to the wide range of needs from our patients, their carers and families, as well as helping us to recruit the best staff.

"The survey should only take a few minutes, but will provide us with important information."

The survey, which is open until Wednesday, 19 June, is available to complete online by clicking the red button below.
