Whitewater Health PPG has eleven members with a variety of backgrounds and skills. The Practice (18,000 patients) is based on two sites in North Hampshire.
We have an excellent relationship with the Practice. The Practice Operations Manager and GP attend every PPG meeting.
Patient Participation Group Awareness Week is fast approaching – let’s work together to share the critical role PPGs play within primary care.
N.A.P.P.’s role is centred around listening to the concerns of patients, understanding the issues they are facing within primary care and escalating this to ensure the patient voice remains at the heart of local, regional and national decision making. As such, we have developed a short survey to gather feedback from our members and the public to understand the most important policy priorities impacting patients in primary care.
Our members spoke, and we acted. To support their need to connect with each other, particularly during these trying times,1 February marked the launch of our online community platform, VeryConnect.
