Virtual Patient Participation Group (PPG)

What is the Virtual Patient Participation Group?

Our VPPG is open to every patient on our GP practice list. All communities, groups, genders, ages, ethnicities, and disabilities representing the patient list are encouraged to join. There are no membership requirements except that patients must be registered with the practice

As a member of the Virtual Patient Participation Group we will send you emails asking for your opinion on a range of topics. We would like our VPPG to assist the practice in making sure our website is ‘Patient Friendly’

You decide how often and when you would like to answer.

Benefits of becoming a member

By doing this you will help the practice to provide an accessible and responsive service and you will be amongst the first to hear about news and updates.

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 have a 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.

If you would like be part of the virtual Patient Participation Group, please email nclicb.vppg.longrovesurgery@nhs.net.
