Teams within South Lanarkshire University Health and Social Care Partnership and the vaccination service have until Monday 30 June to complete their iMatter questionnaire.
Completing the questionnaire – online, on paper or by SMS (test message) – allows staff the chance to give feedback on, and be involved in, influencing change and improvement in their workplace. Staff can take just 10 minutes out of their day to fill in their questionnaire, completed anonymously. Completed questionnaires will be processed by an external company making it totally confidential.
The iMatter continuous improvement model has been designed with the input of staff throughout NHS Scotland to help individuals, teams, directorates, HSCPs and health boards understand and improve staff experience – the extent to which employees feel motivated, supported and cared for at work.
In a video, Professor Soumen Sengupta, chief officer, South Lanarkshire University Health and Social Care Partnership, addresses staff within the South Partnership and vaccination service to explain the purpose of completing their iMatter questionnaire and to encourage staff to take part.
Evidence shows that the better the experience of staff at work, the better the experience of patients and their families. iMatter is designed to help line managers understand what it is like for their staff as an individual at work, in their teams and in NHS Lanarkshire.
Please take the time to fill in the iMatter questionnaire by Monday 30 June. If you are in this cohort and have not received your questionnaire, please speak to your line manager.
