Patient experience matters
We will improve our communications, be transparent and
accountable. We will deliver safe, quality care whilst retaining
dignity and respect. We will strengthen our systems, our
processes and our care interactions. We will ensure the voice
of the people of western Sydney is heard in all aspects of care -
health care policy, planning, design, delivery and evaluation.

will:
-
Learn from the experiences of our patients, carers and
families, with a focus on collaborating with people from our
community to improve our services.
-
Strengthen our care teams working collaboratively with
patients, carers and families to provide holistic coordinated care.

Help people to better understand their health and manage their
care.
