description The development of the new health screening service for Ukraine Refugees put in place by Powys Teaching Health Board in 2022 has seen extensive use from Ukrainian families in need of extra support from the National Health Service (NHS) and signposting to specific NHS departments. To discuss the experiences of the staff from Powys regarding their role in setting up the screening service and working within it, Research Assistants from Technology Enabled Care, Wales conducted interviews with two staff members. These clinical leads suggested improvements for the screening service, as captured through analysing the data collected via the interviews. This included recognition of benefits, challenges and future recommendations.
