Digital Communications with Patients.

The request was successful.

Dear The Christie NHS Foundation Trust,

Do you use any applications or tools to communicate with your patients digitally?

I am interested in all aspects of patient communication, but particularly:

- Pre- and post-operative communication

- eConsent

- Outpatients

- Emergency Care

- Patient engagement at home

- Patient satisfaction

Please advise of the individual(s) (name and/or job title) with responsibility for developing digital communications with patients.

Also, do you have performance targets for monitoring patient satisfaction?

If so, please advise of the individual(s) (name and/or job title) with responsibility for monitoring or reporting on these targets.

Yours faithfully,

Amanda Kelly
