Best service you have ever had? In the next 5 mins discuss with your neighbour • What is the best service you have ever had • What made it special • What happened • How can we create that in health?
Hold the thought • How did you feel listening to this story? What did you notice? • What do you think / feel about Agnes and her situation? • Did you reach any conclusions about her experience and her relationships with staff? • About her care?
Hold the thought • How did you feel hearing May’s story? What did you notice? • Has hearing May’s story influenced your thoughts about Agnes or her situation? • Should it? • Does it expose any assumptions made previously?
Discussion prompts • What have you learned from your reactions to hearing Agnes and May’s stories? • What do these stories tell us about some of the challenges of ‘delivering’ person centred care? • What actions would you like to take in response to hearing the stories? • What would be the main challenges of ‘measuring’ improvements resulting from your actions?

Good Questions for Your Good Health Every time you talk with a doctor, nurse, or pharmacist, use the Ask Me 3™ questions to better understand your health. • What is my main problem? • What do I need to do? • Why is it important for me to do this?
Emotional touchpoints • Using emotional touchpoints (Bate and Robert 2007) as way of learning about the patient and family experience of being in hospital and using this to help staff recognise and celebrate positive care practices and develop the service. Touchpoints refer to important stages/events in their care.
Emotional Touchpoint • Developed a series of emotional touchpoints e.g. coming into hospital, mealtimes, personal care, going for tests and a bank of positive and negative emotional words e.g. powerless, happy, included, numb. • Invited patients/relatives to take part in sharing their experience including providing written information and obtaining written consent 24 hours before the discussion took place. • Asked the patient/relative to select the touchpoints that were relevant to them and invited them to identify any other touchpoints (one relative though being here at night was a key touchpoint for her so this was added). • Taking each touchpoint in turn, we asked them to select an emotional word(s) that summed up how they felt about the particular experience. • Asked the patient/family why they felt that emotion. A relative said for example that they felt ‘out of their depth’ being on the ward at night as they did not know the routine and what they could and could not do. They also felt ‘privileged’ as they were given the space on the ward and support from the nurses to laugh, cry and talk with their family about what a lovely life their father had had. • When a negative point was raised we asked the patient/relative what they thought we could do to improve things and if appropriate ask if they would like to be involved in this (for example a family member is helping to develop an information sheet to support families who are on the ward at night). • Following the interview we type up the notes from what the patient/family have said and with their permission share this with staff on the ward. • We ask staff to tell us what they have learnt from reading the story and if there are any actions we would like to take forward.
Improvement • Staff more at ease move away from blame • Better relationships when developing improving service • Directly sources how individuals ‘feel’ about care • Actions taking based on meaningful evidence • Staff moved and motivated by transparency and inclusiveness
