Letter from Bob

at the Neston SurgeryAs we get a little older we are uppoedto get a little wier. I am not wier I jutnd that I have a memory that goe backquite a number o year. When I watchUniverity Challenge with my nearetand dearet we can anwer quite a ewquetion on hitorical ubject not becaue we went to Uni but becaue we were there at thetime!Ting eem to change rapidly and I ometime have trouble keeping up.I do not know about you but the NHs i going through quite a traumatic experience and many

in the buine ay here we go again..Although the Government i weaving about and u turning I think that it i a good thing in thelong run at leat thing have lowed down a little and we are not knee jerking into all ort otarget or the public to look at and criticize, and we may get cloer to having a great ervice.Te NHs i huge a maive amount o money i pent, and a lot i wated on trying to nd

out where it went! GP and Practice Manager have a reaonable idea o what i needed in theirarea our need in Neton difer to thoe in the middle o Cheter jut down the road and Ithink that our GP, Nure and the public hould have a ay in where the money hould go, toprovide u all with a better ervice.

I wih to do my bit or the Nation and nd out how we can improve the local erviceprovided by the NHs, to you, our patient.o tart on thi intereting path o dicovery WE at Neton surgery are tarting a Patient orum.

In my role a Practice Manager I invite ome o you rom all area and background to join mein a orum. Te intention i to have a group o up to 8 intereted patient who will meet everytwo month or o, to put orward idea that may improve the ervice that you receive.Ti will be an inormal gathering with a trict agenda ormulated ater the rt gathering o

the orum. Ti will be a platorm to expre your idea and hopeully improve what i already agood ervice. It will not be a oap box or political view nor a big tick to beat up the NHs orsurgery, it will become a very valuable litening tool or improvement.I you wih to be a part o the Neton surgery Patient Forum pleae write to me at the surgery

and I will get the ball rolling.Tee view are my own and are not necearily the view o my boe at the surgery. I do

however wave them in ront o them and they make comment. In uture a I get older andbecome a grumpy old man I will have to publih under another heading! (My wie think that Iam at that tage already)
