Enteral Feeding services contract tender

Patient/carer Questionnaire

The enteral feeding services contracts across Mid and South Essex are due for renewal by April 2019. Currently there are two suppliers of feeds and three suppliers of equipment (syringes and other plastics) across this area. We aim to identify one supplier across Mid and South Essex. This will help smooth patient care across NHS services in the area and make services more efficient.

As part of the project it’s really important to us that we gather the views of the people that matter the most i.e. those receiving the service. We would be very grateful if you could spend a moment to share your views on the service and to let us know what matters most to you.

We will be speaking to dietitians, nurses, GPs and professional carers to gather their views too.

 What is the best and worst thing about your current service and how would you like the service to be improved?

We will of course let you know about any changes that might be made to the service you currently receive. This will not happen overnight and if we do make any changes it will not be until late 2018 or early 2019.

Please return this form to your dietitian or nurse when complete or post to Judith Harding, Thurrock CCG, Civic Offices, New Road, Grays RM17 6SL.

Many thanks

This will help smooth patient care across NHS services in the area and make services more efficient.

As part of the project, we are holding an event to meet companies who provide enteral feeding services to compare their service, products etc.

We would like patients, their loved ones and carers to be part of this event as their views and opinions matter the most.

If you would be interested in attending an event to learn more about the companies who are competing to become the one supplier of enteral feeding services in Mid and South Essex, please provide your name, postcode and telephone number below. The event will be held in the Spring of 2018 in Basildon (date and location to be confirmed).

There will be an opportunity to trial some of the equipment and feedback your thoughts.
