Comments from GPs on telephone triage skills training

"Immediately prior to the training our waiting time for prebookable appointments were approx 8 weeks at one site and 3 weeks at the other. Within 2 months of running the triage pilot with trained staff, the waiting times are 2 weeks and 3 days respectively AND patient satisfaction has increased measurably as evidenced by monitoring of patient satisfaction since the trial. I am absolutely delighted with these results; our patients and practices are already seeing benefits in a matter of months."
Dr Rob Partington Sheffield

"The evaluations from the attendees were very good indeed. I organised this meeting and found Sally-Anne Pygall to be efficient and most accommodating to my needs." Richard E G Sloan GP Adviser, Protected Learning and Appraisal Lead

Comments from Occupational Health Lead

"Sally-Anne recently ran a two day workshop for the Waitrose Occupational Health team. Prior to the workshop, she worked with one of our team to identify the specific needs of Occupational Health and endeavoured to deliver bespoke training to our team. The team gave very postive feedback regarding the training."

I found myself looking at telephone triage with a whole new perspective, understanding and enthusiasm, which had slowly ebbed away after years of working in an uninspiring and business-oriented call centre environment.
