What is the Patient Participation Group (PPG) and how do I join?
All GP practices in England are required to form a Patient Participation Group (PPG) so patients can share their views and experience about the services they receive. All Meon Health Practice registered patients (aged 18 and over) are eligible to join.
Meon Health Practice will regularly review the membership of its PPG to ensure that the group is representative of its registered patients in relation to gender, age, ethnicity, and local surgery.

What is Anima and how and when can I use it?

How and when do I make an appointment for a chronic condition such as Asthma and Diabetes?
Patients who have a diagnosed chronic condition are invited for their annual review through a nationally monitored recall process which complies with National Institute for Health Care Excellence (NICE) recommendations.
Patients are usually invited for their review around the month of their birthday, and this may involve a questionnaire about their condition, an appointment with a member of our nursing team and a follow-up appointment with a specialist nurse or clinical pharmacist if necessary.

You can access your test results in your NHS App or via the NHS website without needing to contact us.
Test results generally take from 48 hours up to two weeks for the laboratory to return them to us.
If your test has been requested by another healthcare provider, we are not able to share your results with you. You will need to contact the provider yourself to request these.
