Nature Prescriptions Edinburgh

Patient Feedback

Nature Prescriptions is a pilot project designed by RSPB Scotland in collaboration with Edinburgh and Lothians Health Foundation and your GP.

The purpose of this survey is to gather feedback from patients who have received a nature prescription at their GP Practice between September 2020 and June 2021. The survey will enable us to evaluate the process of prescribing nature and any potential changes in health and wellbeing resulting from the prescription.

The survey should take up to 10 minutes to complete and all responses are anonymous. To ensure your confidentiality, no personal information is collected and all responses will be analysed together so that individual responses cannot be identified.

Taking part in this survey is voluntary and you can leave an answer blank or stop at any time.

Thank you very much for your important contribution.

If you have any questions about the survey or would like to contribute further information about your experience of Nature Prescriptions, please contact: natureprescriptions@rspb.org.uk
