Currently if your GP refers you to a hospital clinic you go to hospital and are seen in the relevant department, maybe have tests or procedures and are often followed up, then discharged back to your GP.

We are looking at designing new models of care such as having more tests and treatments available in the community and improving support to patients so they can manage their conditions better themselves.

To help us develop the new model we want to hear your views of how local health services run and how you would like services to look in the future.

During the meeting we’d like you to tell us:

• Have you ever been to a hospital clinic appointment? If so, what was it like?
• Would you like to see more services e.g. tests/procedures available in the community?
• Would you like to access specialist advice without going to hospital?
