Patient Experience Week 2019

This week is Patient Experience Week – a time to celebrate and honour our professional and compassionate staff who strive to make our patients, families and carers experience as positive as possible.

Supported by the Health Consumers’ Council in Western Australia, Patient Experience Week is a global event that acknowledges the work of each person who is involved in caring for patients throughout their health care journey.

Providing high quality, consumer-centred care is at the centre of everything we do at EMHS, and I’d like to extend my thanks to each and every one of you for your continued efforts in putting our patients first.

Commencing today, a number of activities and displays will be taking place across our health service throughout the week. Keep an eye out for the roving photo booths, badge making activities, short film viewings and other activities designed to celebrate every one of you who provide or support the provision of amazing care for our patients.

We encourage all to celebrate the week and acknowledge those who make a positive contribution to “what matters” to our patients every day.

The winners of the Health Consumer Excellence Awards for 2019 will also be announced this Tuesday afternoon – good luck to all our wonderful nominees!
