Service user inspiration for using PKB

  1. Plans were written but I couldn't access them, even when requested.

  2. It feels like a one off assessment or tick box exercise.

  3. They felt like a lecture and continuous changes were not made.

  4. If there is one plan, everyone is aware of, you won't keep repeating yourself.

Feedback from staff using PKB

  • I was worried that this was going to be a lot of extra work, but once I was shown how to use PKB, it's a lot easier than I thought it would be.

  • Patients have fed back to staff that they have found using PKB really helpful. This is nice feedback for staff to hear.

  • It has felt much more professional to introduce PKB to patients and let them know that all the support resources are in one place rather than giving them different website addresses and leaflets and expecting patients to remember them.

  • Having appointment information visible in PKB has been so helpful for my clients to check their appointments and saved me a lot of phone calls and reminding.
