Have your say on health services
| We have been asked to circulate this by Healthwatch Hillingdon, the health and social care champion for the borough. that can be found in chequers square in the pavilions which are conducting a survey to gather community feedback on accessing general practice (GP) services in the area. Its aim is to understand residents’ experiences and preferences regarding GP access, which will help shape recommendations to improve these services based on the community’s needs. The survey offers residents the opportunity to share their recent experiences and priorities for accessing GP services. By collecting a wide range of insights, It hopes to inform changes that can make GP services more accessible and responsive to the community. This email includes a link to an article providing further information about the survey, along with the survey link itself. The survey is brief and anonymous, and all responses will contribute to a clearer understanding of community perspectives on GP access. Please note that the survey will remain open until 31 December 2024, as Healthwatch Hillingdon will begin analysing responses in early January.

Enforcement of dropped kerbs
The Council provides a service for residents and businesses that find their access blocked by a motorist.
You will need to register your property if you have a dropped kerb – The Association’s General Secretary registered hers many years ago but was allowed to register again. This suggests that, since it is now an outsourced facility, previous registrations have not been carried forward.

Orthopaedic surgery moving to Park Royal
From Hillingdon hospitals NHS Foundation trust
The proposal to bring together most routine inpatient orthopaedic surgery in north-west London in a new centre of excellence at Central Middlesex Hospital was approved today (Tuesday 21 March) by NHS North West London, the sector’s integrated care board.
The proposal incorporates feedback from a 13-week public consultation that closed earlier this year involving almost 2,000 people.
The North-West London Acute Provider Collaborative, made up of the sector’s four acute NHS trusts, developed the proposal to improve quality and reduce long waiting times, primarily for hip and knee replacements.
As well as feedback from the public consultation, the proposal reflects feedback and guidance from the London Clinical Senate, the North-West London Joint Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee and the Mayor of London (who commissioned the Nuffield Trust to assess the proposal against his six tests for major NHS service change). The proposal is set out in a ‘decision making business case’ that has been published on the Collaborative website, www.nwl-acute-provider-collaborative.nhs.uk/publications. see https://thh.nhs.uk/news-events/centre-of-excellence-for-inpatient-orthopaedic-surgery-in-nwl-gets-the-goahead-705 for the full report

Elective Orthopaedic Centre – last chance to respond
We’re asking the community across north west London for their views on a proposal to create a centre of excellence for inpatient orthopaedic surgery at Central Middlesex Hospital, Park Royal.
This would allow us to bring together most of our routine, inpatient orthopaedic surgery – primarily hip and knee replacements – completely separated from emergency care services. We believe this would mean better care for more patients, provided faster and more fairly.
You can find out more on the NWL Acute Provider Collaborative website: https://www.nwl-acute-provider-collaborative.nhs.uk/key-projects/elective-orthopaedic-centre.
The public consultation runs from Wednesday 19 October 2022 to Friday 20 January 2023.
