A group of volunteer patients, carers and surgery staff who meet regularly to discuss and support the running of the surgery.
Patient Participation Groups look at the services offered, patient experience and how improvements can be made for the benefit of everyone.
Each Patient Participation Group is different, but they all have the aim of making sure that the surgery puts the patient, and improving health, at the heart of everything it does.
Laurel House Surgery is eager to ensure that local people are actively involved in deciding how the health services they use should develop. To provide patients with the opportunity to express their views, we have set up the Laurel House Surgery Patient Participation Group.
The aim of the group is to give patients, GPs and practice staff an opportunity to meet, to exchange ideas and information, and then to take action. Our group’s activities aim to include:
- Holding health information events
- Consulting with patients on their experiences and on how services could be changed or improved
- Producing a newsletter to keep patients up to date on the activities of the group and the services the practice offers and much more
