Patient Engagement
Neath Cluster has worked with Neath Port Talbot Council for Voluntary Service (CVS) to organise a Have your Say event in November 2017 and a Health and Wellbeing Day in October 2018. The events provided patients with the opportunity to find out about services available locally and provide feedback on some of the services they receive.
Following on from the events, Neath Cluster has continued to work with CVS and the first meeting of Neath Cluster Patient Engagement Group was held in February 2019. The Patient Engagement Group aims to bring together patients from the eight practices to look at how practices and patients can work together to improve health and wellbeing.
At the first meeting, patients discussed the key issues affecting health services, put forward some suggestions for improvements and identified some areas where they can work with practices to improve health and wellbeing. It was agreed that the group would meet on a quarterly basis, so it will meet again in early summer 2019.
