Mutual Respect
We endeavour to treat all of our patients with dignity, respect and honesty. Everyone at the surgery is committed to providing excellent patient care.
Continuity of Care
Building and maintaining a strong relationship between health professionals and our patients is essential to the way we work. This is especially the case when dealing with patients who have long term conditions. In these circumstances, we encourage patients to see, wherever possible, the same health professional and we will endeavour to do this through our appointment system. However, if a patient finds that the doctor or nurse they usually see is not available, then we would encourage the patient to see any of the doctors or nurses and the practice. Continuity for all patients to see any of the doctors or nurses at the practice. Continuity for all patients is promoted through regular internal meetings and communications.
Learning and Training
The practice is a training practice and we are committed to the training of doctors and nurses, who are closely supervised. We recognise the vital role students have in keeping the practice fresh and reflective. All staff within the practice has an annual appraisal where their training needs are identified. We also recognise the benefit of supported learning for patients to enhance the ability to self-manage and deal with long term conditions. The practice trainers are: Dr Lawal, Dr Teckchandani and Dr Kuttappan.
Patient Participation Group
Parkside Medical Centre has an active patient group that meets every two months. We listen to the views of our patients and utilise the group to discuss any changes that we wish to make.
