The doctors, nurses and staff are dedicated to providing high quality primary care to the patient population. The practice is committed to delivering a multidisciplinary team approach that offers holistic care in partnership with patients so that they can be empowered to better manage their own health. The Partners will ensure a happy and healthy workforce through the promotion of work-life balance and maintaining an open and honest culture.
To deliver this vision we will:
- Provide consultations both face to face and on the telephone with GPs, advanced nurse practitioner, practice nurse, healthcare assistant and other healthcare professionals associated with the practice such as Physiotherapy and Midwifery.
- Ensure a clean and comfortable environment from which to deliver the best possible healthcare within the scope of the NHS.
- The NHS services will be free at the point of use; any charges for non-NHS services will be made clear to the patient in advance of the service being carried out.
- Maintain patient equality as all patients will be offered the same level of service regardless of age, sex, disability sexual preference, ethnicity, nationality or religious beliefs.
