2023/24 participant feedback

Participant in Research Experience Survey (PRES) 2023/24

extract from patient feedback form

In order to understand the experience that participants have in our department we take part in the Participant in Research Experience Survey (PRES) initiative which has been developed by the National Institute for Health and Care Research Clinical Research Network (CRN) Coordinating Centre.

Why do we deliver PRES?

Each year, we ask participants to complete the PRES to understand their experiences of research so that we can improve our delivery of research in the future and ensure a positive research experience for participants.

Feedback also helps us to understand what we are doing well, and we can celebrate and share these successes with research staff.

PRES is also one of the means by which the impact of the Clinical Research Network is evaluated, and it is vital that as a Partner Organisation we contribute to this initiative.

PRES reports from all departments at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals 

The reports from this year's PRES are shown below:

2023/24 PRES results for NIHR Sheffield CRF

Research participants taking part in NIHR funded studies at NIHR Sheffield CRF are given the opportunity to provide anonymous feedback on their experience of taking part in research using the Participant in Research Experience Survey (PRES).

We have been busy reviewing all of the data collected, including comments on what was positive about their research experience and also on what would have made their research experience better.  Some of the survey highlights are shown on the right.

We received 14 responses from participants at our Royal Hallamshire Hospital unit and 21 responses from participants at our Northern General Hospital unit, doubling our responses from last time which is fantastic. Overall, the comments received were extremely positive, with some fantastic feedback recognising the great work of everyone in our teams
