Have you or a loved one had an outpatient appointment at our ?

Outpatient appointments account for 85 per cent of hospital activity and are really important to the running of the .

But the way outpatients’ services are delivered is changing. There are lots of reasons for this, including new technology such as video calls and wearable devices, and changing health conditions, such as the increase in type 2 diabetes and asthma.

The James Lind Alliance, a non-profit making initiative working with researchers in the NHS, is drawing up a list of priorities for into outpatient services and is asking for the views of patients and carers.

It takes 10-20 minutes to complete and is open to people who have received care in outpatient services, family members, friends, and carers of someone receiving care from outpatient services.

We pay tribute to Ben Lightburn.

In our thoughts and in our hearts…

Following the sudden and tragic loss of one of our paramedics, Ben Lightburn, on January 1 this year, his friends and colleagues at NWAS wish to share their memories of Ben during their time working together.

Ben first joined NWAS in 2014 as an emergency medical technician, later qualifying as a paramedic in 2021, working across the Cheshire and Merseyside North sector. Ben helped many communities in their time of need, showing immense care and compassion to all his patients.

Senior paramedics and technicians from the Sefton Group, who worked closely with Ben said: “Ben was, and will forever remain, an incredibly loved member of our team. He was amazing with patients and so ridiculously smart. He mentored students and supported his colleagues with a passion that was admirable. Ben was a joker, he was cheeky, he laughed with us and at us and was always at the heart of our team.

“Ben has dedicated his life to the services, from serving in the Royal Navy of which he always shared fond memories with us, and then joining us here at NWAS. He always aimed to excel at everything he did, both in work and in his personal life. Ben was so well respected by his colleagues and adored by patients. His close-knit team, NWAS and beyond have lost a truly genuine, kind and ever caring soul. There are no words to describe how we feel to have lost Ben, so tragically and so suddenly. We will cherish his memory forever and our thoughts extend to his beautiful family at this unimaginable time.”

Matt Calderbank, Cheshire and Merseyside North Sector Manager at NWAS said: “Ben consistently placed others before himself, a dedicated paramedic who will have undoubtedly changed patient and families lives for the better. Ben’s absence has left an irreparable hole across the NWAS team he worked with. Ben was not just a paramedic, but a friend and a mentor to many of his colleagues. The sadness felt is shared by many and we extend our deepest condolences to Ben’s friends and family who have lost someone very special. Our thoughts are with all those affected by this tragic loss.”

Ben leaves behind his adoring wife and two children who have given permission for us to share our tributes. Our thoughts and condolences remain with Ben’s family, friends, and work colleagues at this incredibly sad time.
