Patient Update June 2023 Posted or Updated on 5 Oct 2023

Introduction from Dr Anil Shah

It is great to see that we are now learning to live with Covid as the World Health Organisation has now declared it is no longer a pandemic. I would still advise all of our patients aged 75 and over and those who may be immune=compromised to take up the offer of the Covid Spring Booster Campaign.

There are continuous changes afoot within Primary Care and a contractual change to ensure every patient is offered an ‘appropriate response’ at the first point of contact and we are working hard to ensure we are achieving this new expectation.

Through our increase in same day appointment availability, our enhanced access evening service and working closely with our pharmacy colleagues we continue to exploit opportunities to increase patient access.

We continue to grow our Primary Care Network team and it is great to see the additional support being offered to our Patients across the Network.
