Patient Participation Group

What is the PPG?

PPG is a group of people who want to help the surgery work as well as they can for patients, doctors and staff.

The PPG meets a few times per year but you can still be part of the "virtual group" if you can't make it!

You can join our PPG if you have been to the surgery as a patient, parent, carer or friend.

Working together, all patients views will be discussed and where appropriate we will work on solutions together.

What would be required of me if I join the PPG?

 

There are two type of PPG members– Virtual Members, or Face to Face Members.

Virtual Members  are sent via email agendas and minutes from the Face to Face Meetings. There is no requirement to attend any meetings.

Face to Face Members are a subset of the Virtual Members, made up of around a dozen people who want to attend meetings about issues affecting the practice, and to undertake projects to help out. The group meet every couple of months.

If any members of the virtual group wish to contact the Face to Face group with any feedback they would like shared, they can do so at any time.

The Aims of the Patient Participation Group

We would like to know how we can improve our service to you and how you perceive our surgery and staff. 

To help us with this, we have an active Patient Participation Group (PPG.)

Members of the PPG meet on a regular basis to discuss projects which assist and improve services for patients at the Health Centre.
