“NHS Patients’ Watchdog
launch On-line Survey
Urgent appointments with the GP
Patients’ across Wales are being given the opportunity to rate accessing
their GP in a National Survey launched today by the Community Health Council.
The Survey asks how easy it was to obtain an urgent appointment to
booking yourself in for a routine appointment with your GP. It also asks
Patients’ to indicate how long they waited to be seen once they had an
appointment.
Interim CHC Board Director Cathy O’Sullivan said “The launch of this
survey is very timely following the recent announcement by Professor Mark
Drakeford Minister for Health & Social Services of the reduction of the administrative
burden for GPs in their new contract for Wales”. It is essential that we ask
patients for their experiences of getting urgent appointments with their GP to
monitor the impact on patients following the changes in the GP contract”.
Community Health Councils (CHCs) across Wales have concerns about GP appointment
systems and timely access for patients given that approximately 90% of contacts
with the NHS happen in Primary Care.
The survey will run for two months and we are urging anyone who has to
see their GP to complete the on line survey.

‘Cleifion GIG’ yn lansio Arolwg Ar-lein ar apwyntiadau brys gyda’r Meddyg Teulu
Mae cleifion ar draws Cymru yn cael y cyfle i raddio mynediad i’w Meddyg
Teulu mewn Arolwg Cenedlaethol sy’n cael ei lansio heddiw gan y Cyngor Iechyd
Cymuned.
Mae’r Arolwg yn holi pa mor hawdd oedd hi i gael apwyntiad brys ac i
gael apwyntiad arferol gyda’ch Meddyg Teulu. Mae hefyd yn gofyn i gleifion nodi
pa mor hir y bu’n rhaid iddyn nhw aros i gael eu gweld unwaith yr oedden nhw
wedi cael apwyntiad.
Dywedodd Cyfarwyddwraig Dros Dro Bwrdd CIC, Cathy O’Sullivan “Mae
lansiad yr Arolwg yma yn amserol iawn yn dilyn cyhoeddiad diweddar yr Athro
Mark Drakeford, y Gweinidog Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol, ynghylch
gostyngiad yn y baich gweinyddol i Feddygon Teulu yn eu contract newydd yng
Nghymru. Mae’n hanfodol ein bod yn gofyn i gleifion am eu profiadau o gael
apwyntiadau brys gyda’u Meddyg Teulu i fonitro’r effaith ar gleifion yn dilyn y
newidiadau i gontract Meddygon Teulu.”
Mae gan Gynghorau Iechyd Cymuned (CICau) ar draws Cymru bryderon am
systemau apwyntiadau Meddygon Teulu a mynediad amserol i gleifion o dderbyn bod
tua 90% o gysylltiadau gyda’r GIG yn digwydd mewn Gofal Sylfaenol.
Fe fydd yr Arolwg yn para dau fis ac rydym yn annog unrhyw un sy’n
gorfod gweld eu Meddyg Teulu i lenwi’r arolwg ar-lein.
Mae’r
Arolwg ar gael yn: www.communityhealthcouncils.org.uk
