PATIENT PARTICIPATION GROUP
We have recently set up a patient participation group who meet on a monthly basis with a GP and a member of the management team to discuss how we can take the practice forward and better for patients. The aim of the group is to make the surgery a better place for patients to come to and to give a patients view on how patient care can be improved.
If you have any suggestions for the PPG representatives to look at, there is a PPG suggestion box in reception or you can contact a representative on one of the following numbers.
Eva 01942 516269
John 01942 521075
Margaret 01942 515297
THERE WILL ALSO BE A DROP IN HOUR ON TUESDAY 27TH JULY
BETWEEN 2.30PM AND 4.30PM
AT HINDLEY HEALTH CENTRE SURGERY
All suggestions are confidential to the patient representatives, no names will be given to the practice staff. However, the patient participation group is not a forum for complaints or can be used for a patient to use for their own personal issues with the practice.
