MP Checks Up On New Services At Local Surgery


Monday 18th October 2010

North East Derbyshire MP, Natascha Engel, has seen first hand how the introduction of new initiatives has benefitted patients in Clay Cross.

Natascha Engel Visits Local Surgery

During a visit to Blue Dykes Surgery, Natascha spoke to Dr John Mann, Senior Partner at the practice, and he explained that patients now have access to a Patient Liaison Officer to deal with non clinical issues, a Health Care Champion to encourage patients into Healthier lifestyles and a Self Help room, allowing patients to charge of their own health.

Commenting on her visit Natascha said: "I was delighted to visit Blue Dykes Surgery and I even got my own health check in the new Self-Help Room."

On the new initiatives Dr Mann said: "The Practice gives a high priority to the services it provides to patients.

"We run a Patient Participation Group that helps support and develop the surgery. The Group has been running since April 2008 and meets every two months.

"Anyone who would like to join the group should contact Blue Dykes for further details."
