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 />
