Setting the future framework for your Patient Participation Group

Wednesday 25 January 2017

This is the first in a series of three workshops to support practices and their Patient Participation Groups (PPGs) in working effectively together in the current climate of change and challenge for general practice.

This workshop offers an opportunity to take a step back to review the achievements of your PPG, understand the key components of an effective PPG and plan for the future development of your PPG in line with the priorities of your practice and patients.

Practice leads in patient participation and members of Patient Participation Groups

Aims of the event

Participants will be aware of the key components of an effective PPG and have the tools to review the focus of their PPG and action plan for its further development. Participants will be able to celebrate the successes of their Patient Participation Group (PPG) and share their learning about what works well and what doesnâ€™t work so well.
