First-rate care, First-rate people, First-rate value

Involvement & feedback

We are committed to improving the services we provide. We work closely with NHS Surrey Heartlands Clinical Commissioning Group, and other CCGs, which buy and monitor our services on behalf of the NHS, ensuring we provide the most up to date clinical care and services, in line with NICE and NHS England guidelines.

You can find out more about how we are doing here

We want to hear from our patients, their carers and others about the care received from us. You can do this using the various methods shown below.

We also want to involve local people when we are considering changing services. This joint planning of clinicians providing services and local people who have experience with us - or who might need care from us in the future - enables us to make the right choices, and provide best health and care services. Please do consider joining our First Community Network (details below).
