Happy House Surgery is very keen to support the development and improvement of NHS services and treatments and has joined with the National Institute for Clinical Research (North East and Cumbria), an NHS body, to take part in research projects relevant to Primary Care.
In some instances, we may provide anonymised data on patients – for example how many patients have asthma or how many patients over a certain age take a particular medicine, however it may be possible that you might be asked to take part in a project.
It is entirely up to you as to whether you wish to take part in the research or not and the decision you take will not affect your care from the practice in any way.
If you want any further information on this, please download the Practice Leaflet, which explains this in a little more detail by clicking here.
