Healthwatch South Tees has made it a priority to collaborate with primary care and general practice (GP’s), to reduce barriers to access GPs for those requiring reasonable adjustments.
The Tees Valley Healthwatch Network worked together to co-design a survey with Tees, Esk and Wear Valley NHS Foundation Trust (TEWV) which enabled us to gain an insight into people’s experiences of accessing mental health and well-being services.
