Patient Survey for Novum Health Partnership

Baring Road Medical Centre and Rushey Green Group Practice have recently merged to form a new partnership called Novum Health Partnership. GP services will continue to run at both sites and by merging we are seeking to improve the service we offer to all of our patients. We would value your opinion on some of the opportunities provided by the merger and would be very grateful if you would complete the questionnaire below.

Question Title

* 1. Which surgery do you attend?

Question Title

* 2. Please select your age group

Question Title

* 3. Please select your gender

Question Title

* 4. The merger provides the opportunity to share specialist skills across both sites, for example GPs with interest in Dermatology, Elderly care or Diabetes. This will allow patients to get more expert care at their GP surgery. Do you feel that this would be beneficial for you?

Question Title

* 5. Patients of the merged practices will have the option of being seen at either site. This gives patients the opportunity to choose based on convenience and availability.

Do you feel that this would be beneficial for you?

Question Title

* 6. Would you be happy to travel to either site for an appointment?

Question Title

* 7. By merging, we will be able to offer more options for extended hours appointments across both sites, for example evening appointments and Saturday surgeries. Do you feel that this would be beneficial for you?

Question Title

* 8. Would you like to be able to contact the practice and clinicians online or by email?

Question Title

* 9. Would you like the practices to have a single phone number for booking appointments at either site, this means a call centre set up to receive all calls with more receptionists handling calls?

Question Title

* 10. The two sites currently each have their own patient participation group (PPG). We are thinking of combining both groups to form one large group. Do you feel that this would be beneficial for you?

Question Title

* 11. For PPG members, if the group does combine, meetings could be at either of the sites. Would you be prepared to travel to either?

Question Title

* 12. Would you like an improved website to offer better interaction with the surgeries and offer information on other local services and on self-care?
