Ethics declaration
: The authors declare no conflicts of interest. The study was classified as an evaluation of service impact on service delivery staff and therefore did not require institutional review or NHS Research and Development review and approval. This outcome was confirmed by the following organisational bodies: NES, NHS Tayside, HEIW, Kings College London and the Office of Research Ethics Northern Ireland. Respondents were asked at the outset of the questionnaire to confirm they had read and understood the PIS and understood that the data collected was anonymous. A positive response to both questions and completion of the questionnaire implied consent.
