Patient Participation Group
Hampton Medical Centre has had an active Patient Participation Group for several years now. We promote our member’s for the Patient Group using the following methods:
- Our practice website
- Our practice registration documents
- Using word of mouth
- Posters in the waiting room
The profile of our patient group consists of a wide variety of ages, from young parents to retired couples, our own GPs, the Management and members of our admin/reception team. There is an open invitation for any new members to join the group. Please ask at Reception.
The aims and objectives of our patient group working for the practice are 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 the services
Based on cooperation
- It works by building a relationship between the practice staff and patients and breaks down barriers to communication.
- It enables sharing information
- It can provide the first steps towards wider involvement in the rest of the NHS.
What it is not:
- A forum for voicing individual issues and complaints.
