Patient Participation Group

The Practice is privileged to have a long established and very successful Patient’s Group.

The Group is a registered charity, which was initially set up in 1989 to provide medical or nursing equipment that would not easily be available on the NHS, to improve the health, or quality of life, of Hartington Surgery patients.

Funding is provided solely by patient donations, often given in memory of a loved one who received care and support from the Practice. The Surgery would like to pass on sincere thanks for these charitable donations, without which the Patient’s Group could not offer its valuable support.

In more recent times the Group has also taken on the role of a discussion forum to exchange ideas and suggestions to improve service provision. The Practice aims to use this constructive ‘patient led’ advice and feedback to prepare an action plan for future Practice improvements.

If you would like to be involved or if you have any queries about the Patient Participation Group, then please leave your name, email and contact details at Reception and we will contact you with further details.
