The Old Fire Station Surgery Patient Participation Group (PPG) is a core group of 10 patients who meet four times a year. The group is chaired by one of the patients and has representation from patients, carers and GP practice staff.
The purpose of the group
- To give patients and practice staff the opportunity to meet and discuss topics of mutual interest.
- To provide a means for patients to become more involved and make suggestions about the healthcare services they receive.
- To explore issues from patient complaints and patient surveys, contribute to actions plans and help monitor improvements.
- To contribute feedback to the practice on National Patient Survey results and Friends and Family Test feedback to propose developments or change.
- To support health awareness and patient education.
We are looking to recruit patients to the PPG and be represented on either the Face-to-Face Group or become a virtual member. You will then be added onto our mailing list, and you will start receiving communication from the surgery.
