Abstract

Patient reported experience measures (PREMS) are a key part of measured quality. There is no tool currently used in the UK in Acute Medicine. On the 8th of September 2022 10 units based in England, Scotland and Wales collected data for the validated PREM, alongside the EQ-5D and variables from the Society for Acute Medicine’s Benchmarking Audit (SAMBA) dataset. 365 patients were screened, 200 were included (55%): 159 patients from AMUs and 41 from SDEC units. Overall experience of patients was rated 8.5/10, patients rated their experience of safety, trust and listening highly. Collection of PREMS was feasible. Further research is required to link experience to clinical outcome and explore tools that capture experience of patients with altered mental status.
