Can you help Aylesbury Vale CCG to shape Musculoskeletal services in Buckinghamshire?

0 Replies

NRAS would like to make you aware of these meetings which we were notified about this week. Please note first meeting is tomorrow

Have you had any treatment for muscle or joint problems, or used any physiotherapy and orthopaedic services in Buckinghamshire? If so, then we would like to hear from you.

NHS Aylesbury Vale Clinical Commissioning Group and NHS Chiltern Clinical Commissioning Group are currently reviewing Musculoskeletal (MSK) services across the county.

Dr Christine Campling, Clinical Commissioning Director for Planned Care, said: “One in five GP appointments are for patients with MSK problems. These can range from sports injuries to longer term conditions, including arthritis and rheumatism.

“Part of this review is to seek the opinions of the current service from those who have used it, or those who may not have used it directly but have experience of the service.

“We are really keen to engage with the public and would like to use their feedback and experiences to help provide the best service possible for patients suffering with these conditions.”

There will be a roadshow of workshops to discuss the current service that is provided and how it can be improved, with expert presentations and lots of opportunity for feedback and discussion.

We will be sharing with you our current initiatives and together, hope to identify how we can best deliver and develop these for local people.

The MSK roadshows are listed below:

16 October – 2.30pm until 4.30pm and 5pm until 7pm

The Hub, Easton Street, High Wycombe HP11 1NJ

21 October – 10am until 12pm

Sivatech Centre, Gatehouse Close, Aylesbury HP19 8DJ

There is also an online survey to help us capture the experiences of as many people as possible. surveymonkey.com/s/XC7DNFB
