  • (PPG) Access Information to Local Hospitals the Data in This Document Was Updated February 2020
    Shepton Mallet Grove House Surgery - Shepton Mallet Patient Participation Group (PPG) Access Information to Local Hospitals The Data in this Document was updated February 2020 NHS Patient’s who live in the Mendip Area and require Hospital Appointments, may need to attend any one of the Hospitals which are located over a large area. It is therefore important for Patients to have access to data that will help them get to the chosen Hospital for their appointment. There are options for patients who are able to go independently or with friend or relative by car. a) Park & Ride if available b) Drive direct c) Community Transport is another option If you have a medical need and want to check if you are entitled to free NHS transport, patients can call the NHS Transport Advice Centre. Also seek advice as to whether or not you can claim a refund for cost of transport to the Hospital. As a result of feedback from patients at Grove House Surgery, the Grove House Patient Participation Group, decided to create a document that would give Patients a Hospital access information guide, to help them get to a Hospital in the Area. We hope the Hospital Data attached to this Document will be of Use. The Information gathering to produce this guide, was done by PPG Member Mr. Neville Everett with the assistance of fellow members of the Grove House PPG Data Correct at time of Publication. Parking Charges are subject to change If you Have any comments regarding the attached data, or want to add any information We will be pleased to hear from you.
