Report on the Establishment and Work of the PPG - March 2012
Would you like to be part of the new Practice Patient Reference Group?
The Practice wants to gain feedback from its patients by setting up a Patient Reference Group to help us to develop our services in line with our users’ wishes.
We are proposing that the Group should normally communicate by email so that no one is excluded by time or transport constraints. However there would also be some occasions when a face to face meeting is necessary and an evening meeting would be convened.
We hope the Group can be representative of all our users so we welcome interest from registered patients in all age and ethnic groups, all geographical locations in our practice area, and all states of health including those who rarely visit the doctor. We would like there to be a 50:50 split between men and women, someone from every age group including under 25s and those of working age, students, retirees, those who visit us for regular health checks and those who only make an appointment once in a blue moon. There is no real limit on the number of participants but if there is a preponderance of one group we may have to choose members by random selection.
One of the first tasks of the Group will be to agree the questions to be asked in our next Patient Survey. You will also be asked to comment on the outcome and help us to plan our future services.
Could you spare us a few minutes of your time?
If you would like to take part in this Patient Reference Group, please email the practice manager
Philippa.Moody@GP-D83020.nhs.uk by 31st July 2011 or as soon as possible thereafter. Please use the words ‘Patient Reference Group’ in the Subject box.
We look forward to hearing from you.
