Gateshead Local Authority is undertaking a review of sexual health services in Gateshead to help design future services. A vital part of the review process is the Consultation Phase.

The Consultation consists of 2 separate Questionnaire’s hosted on Gateshead Council’s Portal from 1st November-30th November.  

All the responses from the Questionnaire will be stored securely and treated in the strictest of confidence.

Both Questionnaires can accessed by clicking the links below and entering responses direct.  Alternatively you can download here should you want to use paper based questionnaires.  
Questionaire 1 - Pateints       Questionaire 2 - Staff

The LPC would encourage all Pharmacy contractors who provide Sexual Health Services to take part in the survey and where possible encourage users of their services to feedback also.
 
Details of the Questionaire are as follows.

1) Patients/Service Users of Gateshead Sexual Health Services and Gateshead Residents. 
The Questionnaire can be accessed on ‘Gateshead Council’s Portal’ at www.gateshead.gov.uk/consultation in the current consultation section, under Sexual Heath Review.
