My GP Practice  Important to me and my partner/family  Important to others  Important to the local community How do I want to be involved?

 Joining a patient group can help you discuss issues and ideas and work with your Practice to make services better  It is important that your GP Practice has a group of patients it can work with to improve services and share good practice  With GP’s having more involvement in buying services they need patients to work with them to tell them what is important. What is working well and what can be improved? So, why do we need to get involved and how can we do this?

A Patient Group is Patients working with the practice to:  Help themselves and other patients to take more responsibility for their health  Provide practical support for the practice  Contribute to the continuous improvement of services  Varied to suit local needs  The activities of each group are determined by the needs of the community and in consultation with practice staff.

Patient groups are all about patients registered with a practice working together. But what happens if you think an issue affects more than just your Practice or maybe you just want to see what other Patient Groups are doing? Why not ask if you can go and meet another PPG? Look out Networking events! What about other Patient Groups?
