The Reporting Template and instructions for how to complete them are available to download at this link:

Heartlands client survey — online and paper
MSD has developed a client survey, in consultation with providers, to gather feedback from Heartlands’ clients. Client feedback helps support the best possible delivery of Heartlands.
Providers can choose whether to use the survey — it is entirely optional for clients to complete. The link to the online survey is here:
A QR code is also available. This can be printed and displayed at Heartlands sites for clients to scan on their phones and access the survey in their own time. There is more information about the QR code, including the image, in our FAQs.
Some clients may prefer to complete a printed paper copy of the survey. Where client information is provided on paper, forms must be stored securely, entered into the online platform (by providers) within a week of receipt, and destroyed afterwards.
There’s more information about the client survey and a copy of the QR code in our FAQs, here:
