Equity in experiences and outcomes

Score: 3

Staff and leaders actively listened to information about people who are most likely to experience inequality in experience or outcomes and tailored their care, support and treatment in response to this.

People were supported to access care, treatment and support when they needed to in a way that worked for them. For example, staff liaised with nurses when a person had to go to hospital for routine check-ups so they could use a side room which helped them cope with waiting for their appointment. The management team and staff ensured there were no barriers or delays in accessing care. A manager told us, “Nothing is impossible.” Staff understood people’s rights and told us examples of when people faced discrimination where they had required staff to advocate for them to ensure they received equal experiences. For example, a manager told us they had to push for an appointment for someone to have an irregularity on their skin looked at which they believed was dismissed because of the person’s age. They told us, “Put yourself in their shoes, I would want that to be looked at.” The manager had ensured all reasonable adjustments and any other barriers to care this person may have faced had been discussed and treatment was planned and confirmed.
