Welcome to our PPG page!
Our PPG actively looks to:
– Represent the views of all patients registered with Kidderminster Medical Centre (KMC), by acting as a two – way channel of communication between patients and the practice staff
– Act as a ‘sounding board’ for the Practice to ensure patients’ needs are considered in the development of current and new Practice processes, procedures and systems
– Work with the Practice to encourage, support and promote good health education, health promotion, health care services and practice
– Assist the Practice to address patient concerns about services, processes and systemsPlease note the PPG will not act on behalf of any individual in respect of clinical complaints or disciplinary matters involving the practice, nor will they act as an Appeals body. Clinical complaints or disciplinary matters involving the practice are not discussed, either formally or informally, at our meetings as these should be raised directly with the Site Manager, Samantha Burns.
– Review and comment upon local and national issues affecting the practice and its patients
