2024 Engage: Building a better future together

Thank you to everyone who completed this year's survey. We had over 500 responses which is fantastic! The winners of the lucky draw were contacted and were all thrilled to be notified of their win.One winner commented:

"I think it’s important to contribute to the GPSA annual survey as it’s an important tool for quality improvement as well as acknowledging what has worked well. 

"I’m delighted to be a part of the GPSA network and take my work as a GP supervisor seriously. It’s fulfilling knowing that you are contributing to the high standards of quality care that impacts the community you live and work in, as well as be a mentor to the future GPs that will eventually be taking over."

We are now at the pointy end of the NTCER review, the first round of negotiations with GPRA set for early July. We would like to thank all of our members who have volunteered their time and expertise in this process, especially those who have participated in one or more of the 16 GPSA workshops we have run since the start of May. If you haven't yet had the chance to voice your suggestions, we note that there is still time to complete the NTCER survey here.
