Happy New Year

If you want to get 2012 off to a good start why not book a health check with one of your Health Care Assistants? They can advise on weight management, healthy eating and get you the help you need to quit smoking.

Are you a carer?

We are working with Furness Carers to help support patients who care for someone. Nic from Furness carers will be holding drop-in sessions on Fridays from 2.30-1.30pm from late February.

Patient Participation Group

 

Key Roles

  • This group has been established to try to develop a positive and constructive relationship between patients, the practice and the wider community. We want the practice to be responsive to patient needs and also for our patients to understand and support the practice's systems, thereby helping us to deliver efficient care.
  • We will consult the PPG ( Patient Participation Group) on all major developments within the practice and inform them of changes that have occurred.
  • We will ask the PPG for feedback on our services and performance, so that we can assess how successful we are being in the delivery of appropriate and efficient care.

 

Membership

  • All registered patients are welcome to join the PPG although the core group that will meet at least twice a year will be limited to twelve. All other members will be able to have input via email or letter. Please contact us via the adjacent tab if you would like to express interest in becoming a member.
