Primary Care Networks Alan Turner Programme Manager
What are Primary Care Networks? • GP practices are joining together to form ‘networks’ • Typically neighbouring practices • Each network serving 30,000 – 50,000 patients • Other community-based professionals and services will work alongside networks eg pharmacists, district nurses, dementia workers physiotherapists, social care and the voluntary sector
Why is this happening? • Approach has been piloted across the country over the past 3 years • NHS England expects every GP practice to become part of a primary care network by June 2019 • Reinforced by the NHS Long Term Plan • Part of the new GP contract published in 2019
What does this mean for patients? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W19DtEsc8Ys
Benefits of Primary Care Networks • More joined-up care for patients • Small enough to deliver personalised care • Large enough to ensure GP practices and other services remain resilient
Next steps? • Rapid development of networks in progress • Each considering their own population health needs • Setting up governance and leadership arrangements • From 2019 networks will employ one clinical pharmacist and one social prescriber • From 2020 physiotherapists and physicians associates employed • From 2021 will include community paramedics
