Appointments
What does this mean?
The number of Did Not Attend (DNA) and cancellations equates to 29 full time therapists time being lost across the month*
This means on average an extra 321 patients could have started treatment and therefore reduced current waiting times
* This is based on a Therapist delivering 24 contacts per week.
Recovery Rates - What is Recovery?
Recovery is measured using a series of questionnaires that are filled in at each appointment with your therapist. To be deemed "In Recovery" you must have attended a minimum of two appointments and your scores at the first and last appointment will be counted. Your first scores must be above a certain threshold and the final scores below that. If all of that is met, you will be classed as "In Recovery". You do not need to complete your agreed treatment to be classed as "In Recovery".
However as the graph shows below, you are more likely to recover if you complete your agreed treatment with Talk Liverpool
Across the last 12 months, 83% of people who completed their treatment recovered
Further more detailed definitions of Recovery can be found on NHS Digital and NHS England Websites.
