How does the staff recording of outcomes and experience data for the cared
person impact on staff outcomes (for example perceptions of their role and role
satisfaction)?
Background
Understanding how people experience social care – either as people accessing or providing care and support – informs our evidence of what is working well for people, where there are challenges, and what factors influence positive and negative experiences. This evidence will guide future improvements and help us understand how existing policies, standards and outcomes are being put into practice. Survey data, qualitative research and mixed methods can all contribute to the improvement of social care experience data.
