Patient Participation Group

PPG’s are groups of active volunteer patients working in with practice staff and GP’s.

We want our PPG to create a unique partnership to work with us to provide practical support and to encourage patients to take more responsibility for their own health

We want our PPG to represent our practice population; to give practice staff and patients a forum to suggestive positive ideas and voice concerns.

Ground rules are important to ensure meetings are not used for pursuing individual personal complaints or agendas.

Patient confidentiality is of the utmost importance and everyone on the PPG should be treated fairly, equally and with respect.

Join Our PPG

For the Patient Participation Group to be effective it needs to have a membership that allows it to reach the broadest cross section of the patient population and we will be communicating its formation within the patient population through various means.

The National Association of Patient Participation

This association aims to promote the role and benefits of PPGs to patients, the public and health professionals, to create more understanding of the value of true patient participation also to promote the support available from N.A.P.P.
