Article Synopsis
  • A satisfaction survey was created to understand the perceptions of COVID-19 patients hospitalized during the first wave in Liverpool, which resulted in a high completion rate of 96%.
  • Most respondents rated their overall care positively (4.7/5) and felt safe and well-managed during their treatment, but only 63% felt adequately consulted about their medications.
  • To address areas for improvement, such as patient consultation and quality of sleep and food, a 'COVID-19 practice pointers' poster was developed, with plans to evaluate its impact on future patient perceptions.

Introduction: Leaderboards provide feedback on relative performance and a competitive atmosphere for both self-guided improvement and social comparison. Because simulation can provide substantial quantitative participant feedback, leaderboards can be used, not only locally but also in a multidepartment, multicenter fashion. Quick Response (QR) codes can be integrated to allow participants to access and upload data.
