It was agreed that as Grant was not available for this meeting, Jan and
Grant would get their heads together outside of the meeting and bring
suggested ideas to the next meeting to be discussed and agreed
The group thought it would be helpful if everyone had access to everyone
else’s email details and Jan said she would ask Gisela to circulate these,
although most people, had some but not all info regarding this.

Newland Surgery
 Have still not received their CQC report but were expecting
positive feedback
Kings Street
 Have recently received a safeguarding report which was currently
being looked into.
 The Practice have had good feedback from patients to their walkin surgery sessions. Patients can sit and wait and times have been
expanded due to demand
St Thomas Road
 Received notification of their CQC visit in 2 weeks time
 Currently compiling a satisfaction survey for patients for feedback
Crofton Health Centre
 After several discussions within the practice, and with network
chairs of 5 and 7, it is sad to report we have requested to leave
network 7 and move to network 5 (covering Wakefield city and
surrounding area) due purely to its location, being closer to our
practice and being able to offer better out of hours (OOH) service
to our patients as part of the new network. We are awaiting official
approval by the CCG and should this be granted, the practice will
leave the network on 31.3.2016. We will keep the network
informed of any development.
7. District wide PPG
meeting feedback
Stakeholder meetings are to be brought forward to Spring/ early summer
with time for consultation and feedback

 Young People report and next steps
 Commissioning – what is it?
 Federating – what does this mean to practices and networks?
