Kindness, compassion and dignity

Score: 3

The service always treated people with kindness, empathy and compassion and respected their privacy and dignity. Staff treated colleagues from other organisations with kindness and respect.

The service had arrangements to promote people’s privacy. During the onsite visit, we observed staff speaking to people politely and with kindness. Music was played in the waiting rooms at the main site to help ensure conversations could not be overheard. A private room was available for people who wished to discuss matters confidentially.

The service performed better than the national average in the 2026 National GP Patient Survey. Survey results showed people felt listened to and felt they were treated with kindness. For example, 90% of respondents said the healthcare professional at their last appointment was good at treating them with care and concern, compared to the national average of 87%.
