Formic’s Friends and Family Test (FFT) survey solution provides fast, accurate and multichannel data capture, analysis and real-time reporting, and is rapidly helping increase FFT completion rates for healthcare providers, commissioners, GPs, dentists and other healthcare organisations.
Quick and easy to set up, Formic’s FFT solution is cost effective and scalable, and collects and validates information for use in a central database using paper and online formats, and can feature large print and child-friendly response formats to make them as inclusive as possible.
Fully compliant with NHS England methodology and best practice, our solutions allow users to build their own surveys, or choose from an extensive survey template library. Customers can print their own FFT surveys, or we can do this for you.
Formic works safely and securely with your IT systems, and can either be installed on your organisation’s IT infrastructure, or be hosted and accessed via the cloud. This means that you can use our technology to support as many FFT surveys as you would like, in ways that meet the needs of you and your patients.
Contact us now on +44(0) 370 197 5608 or info@formic.co.uk to see how we can help you with our Friends and Family Test survey solutions.
Surveys can be distributed across the patient journey using paper, online, on mobile or tablet, on touchscreen or via kiosks. Results come through to an easy to use dashboard and then broken down by specialty and location. Reports can be generated daily, weekly or monthly, and fed into a secure central database that can then be used to support internal and external reporting requirements. Nominated personnel can access the responses securely from a desktop or mobile device.
This enables powerful, real-time reporting on patient feedback across one or several organisations, and includes comment snippets that can easily be displayed online or put on display, which can have a positive impact on staff morale.
The Formic platform is used by over 200 NHS and public sector customers to turn data into insight, and provides the foundation for immediate and sustained quality and service improvements. As well as the FFT, Formic supports patient and staff experience surveys, and clinical audit.
Formic is listed on the GP Systems of Choice Framework.
