It is estimated that nearly one in four people in England suffer with conditions related to depression, anxiety and stress.
People with mental health problems may be accessing health and social care and know a lot about the quality of care. To encourage them to share their experiences of care with CQC, we will be launching a multi-channel public engagement campaign this summer.
We’re looking for case studies and would appreciate your help. We kindly ask that you share the following with your communities:
Do you get help from health professionals for feeling anxious, feeling stressed or feeling low? The Care Quality Commission (CQC) wants to hear about your experiences of health and social care for a public awareness campaign they’ll be running this summer.
Specifically, CQC are looking for men and women who are happy to be case studies for our campaign.
We will ask our case studies to take part in some or all of the following activity:
- Speak to a member of CQC staff about your experiences of care;
- Take part in a video where they talk about their experiences of care – whether positive of negative;
- Speak to media about their experiences of care.
If you are happy to talk to CQC about your experiences of care, please send an email to yourstories@cqc.org.uk leaving a short description of your experience. Someone from CQC will then be in touch with you to discuss next steps.
