Patient Participation Group

The Patient Group’s objective is to maintain good relations with the medical professionals in our surgery. Meeting with them around every 8 weeks, we act as a means of providing feedback to them about their services, seeking improvement where necessary, whilst also aiming to improve the general wellbeing of the patients. Our intention is to represent a cross-section of age groups and if you would like your voice to be heard we are keen to speak to potential new members.

If you would like to join, please fill in the form and one of us will be in touch with you soon. Thanks

The patient group has a growing number of members. The group consists of a wide variety of ages, skills and experiences but there is always room for more.

How can I get involved?

There are two levels of involvement: The Core Committee and The Interest Group

The Core Committee: Member meets bi-monthly and it’s members will form working groups to manage projects for the benefit of patients.

The Interest Group: Members agree to being contacted by the Core Committee on an ad hoc basis to give their opinion on specific topics of interest, for example:- Practice opening hours, services offered. They may also raise issues or queries with the Committee, recommending areas of focus for future consideration.

How much time does it take?

Core Committee: we meet for an hour once bi-monthly. This meeting is held at the surgery at lunchtime during the working week. Beyond that, you involvement would depend on what (if any) projects you chose to get involved with.

Interest Group: Perhaps five times a year members may debate matters of interest via WhatsApp or occasionally if deemed necessary face to face. This is not anticipated to be time consuming and may reflect the level of Involvement and research we would email you up to five times a year with a multi-choice questionnaire to gauge opinions. Questionnaires should take no longer than 10-15 minutes to fill in each time.
