Patient group

We have an active patient participation group at our practice.

Stockwell Group Practice operates a face-to-face PPG, and we would like more patients to be involved.

We have meetings two times per year.

What is the role of the patient participation group?

Via the PPG, registered patients of Stockwell Group Practice will have the opportunity to work together with the practice to share ideas on helping patients to take more responsibility for their own health and to help improve the services offered at the Practice.  It aims to give patients a say in how services are planned, developed and evaluated, by developing a good working relationship with the practice staff and GPs.

The PPG will seek to improve communications and patient information through the practice website along with the use of notice boards within the Practice.

More about what a PPG can try to do

  • Assist in communicating to patients how recent changes in the NHS might affect the services we provide
  • Feedback to us more about the level and standard of service we provide from a patient perspective
  • Help the practice decide on overall service priorities
  • Help patients understand more about their medical condition/problems including Diabetes and Heart Disease
  • Help provide information on help available and support groups and networks
  • Help improve the experience of attending the Surgery

What the PPG is not about

We will not deal with personal medical issues or individual patient complaints as there is already an established procedure to deal with these.
