With the advent of Covid-19, Healthwatch Ealing wanted to hear from local people about whether their access to health and social care services had been impacted and how they were accessing information in a rapidly changing situation. As the face-to-face engagement was suspended, the team developed a survey, with input from the Adults Social Care team at Ealing Council, which could be distributed via multiple channels.

Your Voice in Health and Social Care and Healthwatch Ealing are pleased to publish this report: Review of Falls Prevention Services: The report details the findings of user feedback on the NHS Falls Clinic and its various components, Strength and Balance classes, as well as a variety of other related services in order to evaluate the benefits and impact on user confidence and health and wellbeing, and thereby offer some indication towards impact upon falls prevented.
