Patient Participation Group (PPG)

 

 

 

What is a Patient Participation Group?

A Patient Participation Group, or PPG, is a volunteer group of patients who work collaboratively with GP staff to help plan and improve practice services by ensuring that the patient perspective is always represented

How do PPGs work?

PPGs contribute ideas, feedback and suggestions to the practice to improve the patient experience.

Join our PPG

We are always looking for volunteers to help improve our services here at the surgery. We believe that the Patients' suggestions and feedback is invaluable in acting as a main interface between patients and the Practice, working towards improving services. It can:
  • Improve communications between practice and patients, to promote a clearer understanding from both sides.
  • Provide feedback to the Practice suggestions for improvement to the services provided to the patients and to the organisation.
  • Give input to and help around developing and improving areas such as health education promotion, patient recalls etc to make the messages promoted in posters, leaflets, letters and such be as effective as possible.
If you are interested and would like to get involved, please complete a slip and drop it into the box at Reception or complete this form. We will normally contact participants by email so please provide an email address if you have one.
