Research

Listening to your views

We use a range of research and consultation methods to produce robust evidence and to reach as wide and diverse audiences as possible.

These include: 

• Publishing a consultation document on our website where you can let us know your view on key policies and procedures. The document provides background to the issue, sets out the purpose of the consultation, and explains how to respond via a questionnaire and the deadline for a response. 
• Representative research surveys of patients, public and registrants which produce reliable evidence about what you think.
• Focus groups and workshops to enable in depth and thoughtful discussion of issues. They also target sections of the general and registrant population not reached by other consultation methods.
• Providing opportunities for feedback and open calls for ideas on key issues. 

Research library

Our research library contains reports, survey results and other information which we have used in our policy development and strategic decisions.
