It was envisaged that while still in its infancy, the PPG would grow in membership and become a representative voice of the local patient population and have an increasing influence on how the practice develops/ commissions its services. In April 2013 the new governing bodies, National Commissioning Board, West Suffolk Clinical Commissioning Group, Suffolk County Council came into effect. These bodies oversee, the provision of Primary Health Care in West Suffolk. As mentioned in last year’s survey Primary Health Care is going through a period of extreme change. The support and contribution from the PPG at this time is an integral part of our ongoing focus to ensure that our patients are more involved in decisions relating to both the quality and range of services provided by the Long Melford Practice to the local community. The survey commissioned for the year ending March 2014 was based on the General Practice Assessment Questionnaire (GPAQ) survey and adapted for local use by asking questions relevant to the issues raised by the PPG, these included patient access and practice refurbishment.
