FROM next Monday, October 6, carers will be invited to take part in a confidential survey, helping shape future services by sharing their experiences and opinions on how care is delivered.
The 2025 Survey of Adult Carers in England will be sent to a random sample of residents who are a carer or have been a carer in the past 12 months, on behalf of NHS England.
The survey is being sent by every council in England and will gather information to help us understand the experiences of unpaid carers and how services support them, including experiences with local care workers and health professionals, and ideas for improving how organisations work together to support those in care.
Surveys will be sent to a random sample of carers from Monday 6 October, inviting them to share their views and experiences to help shape and improve local care and support services. The confidential survey follows a tick box format to ensure an easy-to-follow structure.
The survey also asks for carers views on the services they, and the person they care for, receive and questions about carers quality of life.
Cllr Maureen McLaughlin, cabinet member for health, wellbeing and adult social care said: “This survey is an important opportunity for carers to share their experiences and help us understand what’s working well and where we can improve. I’d encourage anyone who receives the survey to take part – your feedback will help shape the future of adult social care in Warrington.”
