Healthwatch Hartlepool Accessing Dentistry Consultation Report January 2022
Read about the experiences people shared with us over about the problems they faced trying to access dental services during the pandemic.
Summary
Throughout 2020 and 2021 we received feedback from the public that accessing NHS dental services was very difficult, whether registering with an NHS dentist, getting treatment or even getting treatment at a dental hospital
Aims
- To determine whether accessing NHS dental services is being raised by a few people having a problem or whether it is a more widespread issue.
- As a comparison Healthwatch Hartlepool also contacted all Dentistry practices within the borough to form a view of how they were serving the people of Hartlepool with accessible appointments and treatment.
