Talking General Practice

How does general practice fit into a neighbourhood NHS?


Listen Later

Emma speaks to Dr Caroline Taylor, chair of the National Association of Primary Care and a GP in Calderdale, West Yorkshire.


The NAPC has been at the forefront of developing the neighbourhood approach to health and Caroline is a big advocate for this model. In this conversation, Caroline explains exactly what a neighbourhood is, how general practice should fit into this model and the benefits of this way of working for patients, GPs and practices, including increased job satisfaction.


She also talks about how neighbourhood models could help shift care out of hospitals and into the community, the role of Community Health and Wellbeing Workers, a model the NAPC has been involved in rolling out nationally and the potential impact ICB cuts could have on developing neighbourhoods.


Caroline also has some practical advice for GPs and others on how to get neighbourhood working off the ground in their area,


This episode was presented by GPonline editor Emma Bower. It was produced by Czarina Deen.
