NORTHUMBRIA HEALTHCARE NHS FOUNDATION TRUST
Report to the Board of Directors. October 20th 2016.
Improving Patient Experience
This paper outlines our local approach to improving patient experience and our position at the end of
September 2016.
The trust continues to carry out surveys on a scale that allows for reliable results to be available at a Trust,
Site, Department, Speciality, Ward and individual consultant level.
The surveys have been designed to include all of the key questions from the questionnaire used in the CQC
national patient survey programme but also include locally important priorities.
The Trust continues to demonstrate a strong overall performance towards achieving our strategic aim of
excellent, person centred care.

the ‘Worse’ category compared to one in 2014.

questions, no statistical change in forty questions and was statistically worse in two. The two questions that
were statistically worse fell within the “about the same” category nationally.
National Cancer Survey results 2015
In the 2015 survey, National Cancer Patient Experience Survey (CPES) has adopted the CQC standard for reporting comparative performance, based on calculation of "expected ranges". This means that Trusts will be flagged as outliers only if there is statistical evidence that their scores deviate (positively or negatively) from the range of scores that would be expected for Trusts of the same size. In 2015 there were fifty questions, the Trust results showed twenty in the expected upper range (40%), twenty nine in the expected middle range (58%) and one in the expected lower range (2%)

Comparing 2015 against 2014
NHS England/Quality Health state that a number of significant changes were made to the 2015 survey so caution should be taken in directly comparing data from the 2015 survey to the findings of the previous CPES surveys. When we look at the remaining thirty nine comparable questions it showed the Trust was statistically significantly worse in four questions, statistically significantly better in five questions. The other thirty there was no significant change.
Comparing with other Trusts Using question ‘Q59 Patient`s average rating of care scored from very poor to very good’ to compare with other Trusts, Northumbria scores 8.88 which ranks the Trust 21st out of 146th. The Trust sits within the top 20% of all trusts. In the CPES survey all the Trusts have been calculated an expected upper and lower range for each question,
depending on the case-mix of the patients surveyed. Northumbria on this question exceeded their upper range.
