Dear Patient,

Take our patient survey
We would like to know how we can improve our service to you and how you perceive our surgery and staff. 

To help us with this, we are setting up a virtual patient representation group so that you can have your say. We will ask the members of this representative group some questions from time to time, such as what you think about our opening times or the quality of the care or service you received. We will contact you via email and keep our surveys succinct so it shouldn’t take too much of your time.

We aim to gather around a hundred patients from as broad a spectrum as possible to get a truly representative sample. We need young people, workers, retirees, people with long term conditions and people from non-British ethnic groups.

If you are happy for us to contact you occasionally by email please click the link below to open the sign-up form and complete all the fields.

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.
