The cost per ward for each calendar year of participation is £1,300. This includes a one-day training session for two members of staff in the use of the PIE observation tool.
We also offer discounts for signing up multiple wards.
Associate membership
We are looking for wards to trial our new associate membership for 50% off, costing only £99
Our aim is for wards to collect and respond to feedback from patients and other groups involved in their care, to achieve an elder-friendly hospital.
Wards can utilise the Quality Mark tools (patient questionnaire plus one other measure) to collect data. This data can then be used to improve the quality of care provided to elderly patients.
This a fantastic opportunity to use our new validated patient questionnaire and one other data tool.
You can get detailed and insightful information from patients and staff that will help you to positively impact patient experience.
