Appointments

pen_on_diaryPlease do not bring a list of problems, but see the receptionist if you really need a longer appointment.

Waiting

We are a busy practice and endeavour to give the best service to all our patients (over 12,000), if you have to wait, please be patient. It may be you who needs a little more than 10 minutes next time. To help us keep to time it would be easier if you see the same doctor for routine appointments.

Telephones (01908) 679111

The practice is very busy during peak times, so unless your call is urgent at that time, please call a little later. Calls are being answered all the time. PLEASE BE PATIENT

ASHFIELD MEDICAL CENTRE & PATIENT PARTICIPATION GROUP (PPG)

PATIENT PARTICIPATION CONGRESS

ELECTION OF PATIENT REPRESENTATIVE

MK Commissioning is developing an engagement process to ensure patients can be involved in decision making.

To do this, they are introducing a group made up of elected representatives from each Practice which will be called the PPG Congress.

This group will work together to influence the commissioning process to meet the needs of patients through representation on the main Clinical Commissioning Board (CCB) and five specialist programme boards.

Ashfield Medical Centre is able to elect a representative to the Congress and all PPG/PRG (Patient Representative Group) members have the opportunity to stand for election and to vote.

The representative must declare any conflicts of interest, as they are being elected to serve their Practice and local population and not any other groups.

The representative will hold the post for two years.

The first meeting of the fully elected PPG Congress will take place in mid-February 2012 and representatives to the Congress need to be elected by Monday 6 February 2012.

If you wish to be considered for election, please Email sueward100@sky.comby 27 January 2012. Should there be more than one candidate, then an election will take place in the week commencing 30 January 2012.
