Why Primary Care? • GPs are trusted • nine out of ten patients were satisfied with the care they received at their surgery and over half of patients were ‘very satisfied’ (54 per cent). Only four per cent of patients were dissatisfied with the care they received. This suggests that the current doctor-patient relationship is highly valued and that the public place a significant degree of trust in doctors as professionals. • GPs know their communities, know their patients, and are best placed to apply a local and patient centred evidence base to designing future MH services • Primary Care have developed skills in managing Long Term Conditions • GPs understand the bio-psycho-social aspects of mental illhealth and are able to take a more holistic view of ‘what works’
