#KYN2023

Based on comments about the service from residents and our committee, Healthwatch Bromley decided to investigate how social prescribing was working in 2022 – 2023 in the London Borough of Bromley.  We developed two surveys – for patients and Primary Care professionals – and a set of interview questions for social prescribing link workers (SPLWs). 

This means that our hospitals will be under a lot of pressure again. This weekend is also a bank holiday weekend.

An E&V visit was carried out on 12th June 2023. The visit was announced and planned in partnership with the home. In preparation for the visit, we shared with the registered manager a poster announcing our visit to display in communal areas, and copies of questionnaires explaining the purpose of E&V visits.

If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, it could help to talk to someone. You could talk to someone that you trust, such as a family member or a friend, and they could offer support and help you decide what to do. They could also contact services on your behalf.

Healthwatch Bromley is delighted to be able to share the St Christopher’s Quality Account for 2022-23 and hope you will enjoying reading about the work of St Christopher’s over the last year.

This means that our hospitals will be under a lot of pressure again.

Keep your little one healthy and happy by attending an Infant Feeding drop-in clinic!
