What is climate adaptation? Climate adaptation is the process of adjusting to actual or expected climate and its effects in order to moderate harm or take advantage of beneficial opportunities.
You are being invited to contribute to an Allied Health Professional (AHP) survey to better understand how climate events including floods, storms and heat waves currently impact on patient care and service delivery and how this may change in the future. Climate change is already affecting the NHS, with extreme weather events disrupting services, increasing patient vulnerability, and placing additional strain on resources.
By sharing your views, you will contribute to a collective effort to safeguard patient care and adapt services in the face of climate challenges. Thank you for your participation which will inform future work in this area for AHPs.
The survey should take no more than 10 minutes to complete. A detailed participation information sheet is included on the Greener AHP workspace on Future NHS. You do not have to complete the demographic questions in order to complete this survey. Please select 'prefer not to say'. If you have any questions please contact england.cahpo@nhs.net.
