Our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS)
COVID-19 Vaccine
The NHS COVID-19 vaccination programme has started.
When the time is right, invitation letters will be sent out to people explaining what to do next.
Do not contact us, our PALS team, or your GP to book a vaccine appointment, until you get this letter.
Visit the NHS.uk website for more information about the vaccine
We want to know what you think about our services, what we do well, and what we could do better.
Our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) is a free, informal service you can contact to share your suggestions or concerns to help us improve.
We can:
- Offer you, your families and carers help, advice, and information
- Provide you with information about Berkshire Healthcare, and help with any health-related queries
- Show you how you can get more involved in your own healthcare
- Help resolve problems and concerns when you're using our services
- Provide information on the NHS complaints procedure and how to get independent advocacy support if you're making a formal complaint
How to contact us
You can contact our PALS team for support from 9am to 4pm, Monday to Friday, excluding Bank Holidays.
If you contact us outside of this time and leave a message with us, we will get back to you within 2 working days.
