Patient Participation Group (PPG)

New Group Members are always Welcome
Our Patient Group meets every three months. We welcome patients' involvement in planning and shaping our services as well as discussing proposed changes to health care provision both locally and nationally.
We aim for a wide cross-section of patients with different ages, needs and backgrounds - young people, workers, parents, single people, retired people, those with long-term health conditions and people from different ethnic groups.
Please get in touch if you would like to join the group.

Minutes from the last meeting
- No actions from the last meeting.
Garden Project
- Discussion about the Garden Project. We will hopefully be up and running by January/Feb 2026. We are waiting on charities input and Dr Tony Burch as he has experience on creating allotments for the community. This will be a great project for the eldery, dementia patients, mental health patients and carers.
Fraility Nurse
- We now have a Fraility nurse at the surgery who comes 3 days a week. She has been employed by the NHS to work on outr fraility patients and help give them the support that they need. She will do home visits and see patients to do routine health checks.
Park Run
- Staverton Surgery has started a weekly Park run that is run every Saturday morning at 9am at Gladstone Park. This is a free event and everyone is welcome to join. This is a great way of bringing staff and patients together and is great for the wellbeing of patients.
A.O.B.
- Patches: Discussion whether Patches are good for the surgery and if it helps. Dr An has said that it is good and yes indeed helpful, but we are not using Patches as a total triage system like other surgeries so it does not really realise the burden on our telephone systems.
- Befriending Service: PPG member, Kusam Pal, is working with the Befriending Service and she explained bit about the service and if Staverton could use them to help with our patients. The Befriending Service is there to help eldery patients who need help or someone to spend time with them. There is an event on the 11th Novemeber at the Brent Civic Centre. Dr An will reach out to see if they can help us.
