We are a group of patients who meet regularly to decide ways of making a positive contribution to the services and facilities offered by the practice to patients.
What is the purpose of a PPG?
Our purpose is:
- To give patients and practice staff the opportunity to discuss topics of mutual interest in their practice.
- To provide the means for patients to make positive suggestions about the practice and their own healthcare.
- To encourage health education activities within the practice.
- To develop self-help projects to meet the needs of fellow patients.
- To act as a representative group that can be called upon to influence the local provision of Health and Social Care.
