Introduction to the Friends and Family Test
• Friends and Family Test (FFT) is a simple feedback tool which allows patients and staff to give their feedback on NHS Services.
• Part of NHS England’s Business Plan 2014/15 – 2016/17 “Putting Patients First”.

The Question?
• “How likely are you to recommend the service to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?”
• A follow-up question for GP services is currently being piloted and yet to be determined.
• The answers are on a sliding scale of “extremely likely to extremely unlikely”.

Benefits of FFT
• A simple, comparable test when combined with follow-up questions makes it easy to show good and bad performance encouraging staff to make improvements.
• Staff have access to up to date patient feedback which will be used to take immediate action where necessary.
• Patients are empowered to make informed decisions about their care and also challenge NHS services to improve.
• Commissioners are able to benchmark providers such as the Countess of Chester and Wirral University Hospital Trust.
