Grab your chance to speak up on health services to make a difference

Just two days left to have your say on the new draft public engagement plan being put together by BNSSG to ensure people's views are an important part of decision-making.

The patient and public involvement forum at the CCG are looking for feedback from local people to help shape our area’s new Patient and Public Involvement Policy. The deadline to receive feedback is December 13 at midday. This document will ensure that people are at the heart of what is happening in healthcare. Additionally it means people in our area are involved and engaged with decisions on healthcare and wellbeing policies and services. A draft version of the policy provisions has been co-produced with a group of patient and public representatives and our local Patient and Public Involvement Forum groups. 

The Policy will provide a framework for how we involve local people with the development, implementation and review of healthcare and wellbeing policies and services across our region. It will also set out how we ensure information is accessible to all people and groups. Go to https://bnssgccg.nhs.uk/get-involved/surveys-and-consultations/

As the organisation responsible for planning and buying healthcare services for the people of Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire, we embrace the central role of listening to and taking into account the experiences and views of all those who use healthcare services.
