Deaf Community Questionnaire About Hospitals, G.P Services and Dental Services
16/07/2023
Healthwatch is investigating the issues that the Deaf community in Knowsley, St. Helens and Sefton are experiencing with Hospital access. We particularly wish to know if hospital appointments have been disrupted or lost due to communication issues for deaf people. The survey has a focus on Whiston, St. Helens, Aintree, Southport and Ormskirk hospitals but also includes communication difficulty with other health appointments such as with GP’s and dentists.
Anyone from the deaf community who wishes to take the survey can find it by accessing the link below:

Alternatively you can request a paper copy by phoning 0151 449 3954 or email to [email protected]
Survey closes end of September
