GP Feedback on Discharge Summaries from SCGH Survey

We are seeking feedback from GPs on discharge summaries from SCGH.

Thank you for taking the time to complete this questionnaire. We are hoping to use your feedback to help us to plan how we can improve discharge summaries from SCGH. If you would like further information about this survey please contact Dr Lucy Gilkes the liaison GP ( email below). Your individual responses are anonymous and no information which identifies you will be shared. However we would like to share the compilation of all GP responses with staff at SCGH to help improve discharge summaries. If you choose to complete this survey you will be consenting to have your survey responses included in the compiled data which will be shared with SCGH staff.

This survey is not intended to address any immediate clinical concerns about a discharge summary for a particular patient. If you have concerns regarding an individual patient and would like a response from the hospital regarding this please contact the doctors who were looking after the patient in hospital or contact Dr Lucy Gilkes the liaison GP by email ( below).

Best wishes

Dr Donald Coid , A/Executive Director Medical Services
