Enfield Patient Participation Group

Enfield PPG Network

Who We Are

Enfield Patient Participation Group Network is a group of volunteer patients, carers and GP practice staff who meet regularly to discuss and support the running of their GP practice.

We look at the services the practices offer, patient experience and how improvements can be made for the benefit of patients and the practice. Our primary goal is that of making sure that the GP practice puts the patient, and improving health, at the heart of everything it does.

Patient Partnership

The 6 Principles of Patient Partnership

As per The Patients Association there are six 6 principles of patient partnership. They have engaged extensively with patients in developing these principles, as well as a network of national and Local organisations and health and care through leaders. The principles they have identified are:

  1. Treating Patients as Equals: Patients are treated as equals, with their views recognised as equally valid and having an equal say in decisions.

  2. Patients who are Fully Informed: Services and systems make sure patients are fully informed, in a way that patients can access and understand, and patients use as much information as they wish to.

  3. Shared Decision Making and Patient Partnership: Shared decision making, and patient partnership approaches are used as a matter of routine.

  4. Recognising Inequalities: Inequalities are recognised, and appropriate approaches adopted for different patient groups and communities, identifying and meeting their specific needs.

  5. Seeking Patient Input: Patient input is actively sought, genuinely valued, and meaningfully acted on.

  6. Joining Services Around Patients: Services join up around patients, working with them to identify their needs, and responding to them in a way that make things as easy as possible for the patient.
