Patient Participation Group

Virtual Patient Group

We would like to invite any patients who want to be part of the Virtual PPG to make contact via the link below.

We require the PPG to talk to each other via email discussing practical suggestions to improve our service and to form opinions.  We will require the PPG to interact via email to Hillingdon Health Centre and advice of any suggestions on a quarterly basis.

The group is not a forum to discuss the medical needs/concerns of individuals.

The group is also a place where policies could be explained or where general NHS funding issues could be clarified.

Objectives:

  • To develop a communication between patients and the practice.
  • To explore new service requirements.

Purpose of the Patient Participation Group:

  • To give practice staff and patients the opportunity to discuss topics of mutual interest in their practice.
  • To provide the means for patients to make positive suggestions to the practice about healthcare.
  • To encourage health education activities within the practice.
  • To develop self-help projects to meet the needs of fellow patients.
  • To act as a representative group that can be called upon to influence the local provision of Health and Social Care.

No special skills are required – just some time and an interest in fellow patients.
