THE VILLAGES<br />

Penn Patient Participation Group<br />

The PPG AGM took<br />

place at Penn Surgery<br />

on 23rd July. It was an<br />

opportunity to thank<br />

Gill Markham, who<br />

stood down from the<br />

PPG Executive<br />

Committee, for her<br />

tireless commitment to<br />

the PPG, initially as Secretary and then as Chair<br />

for the past three years. Gill’s communication<br />

skills and warm personality have been highly<br />

valued by her PPG and Practice colleagues.<br />

From 1st <strong>Aug</strong>ust Buckinghamshire CCG are<br />

asking patients to order repeat medications and<br />

equipment (e.g. catheter and stoma bags and<br />

accessories) from your GP practice directly,<br />

rather than from your pharmacy or medical<br />

equipment supplier. Patients can order repeat<br />

medication online through Patient Access or by<br />

taking the completed repeat prescription request<br />

slip to the surgery. Please note: there are<br />

exceptions to the change, for those patients who<br />

need pharmacy support. More information is<br />

available on the surgery website and at<br />

Reception.<br />

The dates of the flu clinics will be posted on<br />
