How to get involved
You can get involved in a number of ways
We want to have a real understanding of what matters to our population.
We are committed to ensuring that the views of patients, carers, stakeholders, partner organisations and the wider community are represented in decisions about how services are proposed, planned and delivered, and how they can be improved.
We involve patients and the public in our work in a number of ways which include:
- Targeted programmes of engagement
- Formal public consultations when there is a substantial variation or development in a service
- Patient Participation Groups which involve patients about the range and quality of services provided by their GP practice and how commissioners plan services
- Annual general meetings (AGMs)
- Community engagement events
- Conversations via our social media channels.
- Citizen’s Panel
- Co-production programmes
The National Health Service Act 2006 (as amended by the Health and Care Act 2022) underline the importance of including local people in our work.
