Appointments
We are committed to providing a high quality of care and NHS England commissions us to provide a full range of
General medical services which requires access to the wider team and facilities chaperones – HCAs, NP, PNs, Counsellors, Minor surgery, retinal screening, pharmacy advisors
CQC assesses us on how we meet the requirements for a high quality of care
The Disability Discrimination Act demands that we comply with statutory legislation
Quality of care
We are trying to recruit new clinicians at the time of a National GP recruitment crisis and a squeeze on funding
We need to concentrate our resources to maximise benefit to our whole patient population we have several rural villages in our area
We currently have 10 Full time equivalent GPs and 2 Full time equivalent nurse practitioners but in 2014 we have lost Drs Hart and Lyons and two salaried doctors in 2014 and we are stretched
We need there to be a realistic expectation of what we can deliver to all of our patients – 8am-8pm 7 days a week is coming but no new staff (everyone can’t work longer than their current 12 hour days)
There is a complaints culture – increasing complaints from non- LW patients about access to appointments with our reducing resource of personnel
Sustainability of existing services
Continue to provide healthcare at home for the housebound
Continue to visit patients who are too unwell to travel Expand prescription delivery service as required Support the Village Hall Committee in their bid- looking
at how the facility could be used in the future once of a sufficient standard
Work with the parish council and patient groups to look at transport options-such as the volunteer driver schemes that operate in other areas or pilot schemes
As opportunities arise engage with schemes looking at how to offer health care remotely-eg SKYPE
Encourage representation of Little Weighton on our PPG-Patient Participation Group
