HEALTH services provided by Kennet and North Wiltshire Primary Care Trust are to come under the spotlight as local patients are quizzed as part of a national survey.

Around 850 people have been randomly selected to take part in the postal survey, overseen by the Commission for Audit and Health Improvement.

People will be asked about services provided by GPs, practice nurses, health visitors, district nurses and dentists. They will also have a chance to comment on a range of topics from access and information to environment and facilities.

Those taking part have been randomly selected from patient registers from across the trust area.

All primary care trusts and health service trusts are to be surveyed.

Barbara Smith, trust chief executive, said: "We have done a huge amount over past months to find out what people think of their health services and welcome the opportunity to get even more feedback."
