AnnotationMORI Scotland was commissioned by the Scottish Executive to conduct research with members of the public aged 60+ into their perceptions of the National Health Service (NHS) in Scotland. The aim was to examine older people's views on the service provided by the NHS, and to consider their experiences with the service. This report considers these views in six chapters: the degree of contact older people have with the NHS each year; contact with general practitioner (GP); the perceptions of older people towards the NHS in Scotland; examples of best experience with the NHS over the past year; examples of worst experience with the NHS over the past year; and suggestions to improve the health service.
