Welcome & Introduction.. White chapel Health Panel. • Dr Pradeep Sharma – Lead GP • Afroza Akthar – Practice Manager • Sioux Thorn – Regional Manager • Mizanur Rahman - Bengali Interpreter
The Patient Survey • We survey 50 patients each month • The survey has been conducted between 1st May 2013 to 31st December 2013 • The survey is given to patients that attend the practice after they have been attended to by any staff member • We have used the information from the patient survey, patient complaints, comments and suggestions received in writing, verbally and via NHS Choices • We have also used the issues raised and in the PPG meetings to build the survey
NHS Choice commentswww.nhs.uk • Pleased with service • Satisfied New Comer • Appreciate support • A credit to the community! • Very good service.. Always improving! • Saturday opening hour - Excellent Service! • Worst service • Worst practice • Not a good experience We know we still have a way to go to improve the service for all our patients
Appointment Activity 1st April to 31st December 2013 • Over a 39 week period • We offered 34826 appointments • 25154 with a GP, Physician assistant or Nurse Practitioner Prescriber • 9672 With a Practice Nurse or Health Care Assistant 1923 Cancelled = we could rebook these appointments 3211 patients did not attend or cancel = wasted appointments
Feedback from last meeting • Can I request a female interpreter on the day? We regularly have a female interpreter available on site, however sometimes this is not always possible due to limitations set by the organisation that provides the interpreting service. • Why aren’t all travel vaccines free on the NHS? The NHS provides the following vaccines for free: • diphtheria, polio and tetanus (combined booster) • typhoid • the first dose of hepatitis A • cholera • How secure is the transfer of letters from hospital to GP surgeries? Typed letters come through our secure NHS internal post. Other clinical results and letters are sent electronically via a secure NHS N3 connection. • How long does it take to receive results from investigations? X-ray results can take up to 10 working days to reach us. Other results take on average 7 days.
Update on progress – You said, we did. • Regular clinical staff -New Lead GP, Dr Pradeep Sharma started in October • Difficulty with phone system- New telephone system in place and online booking service. Staff available at peak times • Time delay for letters from hospital to notes- Improved internal administration processes • Difficulty in getting an appointment – same day appointments for urgent need
