Patient Participation Group Chair and Vice Chair post recruitment.

Haddenham Medical Centre is recruiting volunteers from patients to undertake the posts of Chairperson and Vice Chair for the Patient Participation Group (PPG). The PPG is a group of patients and practice staff who meet to discuss the practice and how it is able to service the community. 

The Chairperson role requires a volunteer who is interested and committed to working with the practice for the benefit of all patients. There will be a requirement to Chair and organise the PPG meetings.  Interested parties must be a patient of the practice; ideally with some experience of running meetings and used to public speaking. 

The Vice Chair role will support the Chairperson and deputise at meetings in their absence.  Interested parties must be a patient of the practice; ideally with some experience of running meetings and used to public speaking. 

Both roles require volunteers who are sensitive to the needs of the practice and patients and can assist in the success of the PPG.

If you are interested please apply by letter or e-mail to Ellen Solley Practice Manager, detailing what interests you about the role; your experience and what you can bring to it by Friday 21 June 2013.
