What is a Primary Care Network?
A Primary Care Network is a group of GP practices who work together with community, mental health, social care, and voluntary services in the local area, to provide comprehensive primary care services to a defined population.
PCNs build on existing primary care services and enable greater provision of proactive, personalised, and coordinated health and social care for people close to home.
Over 99% of general practices are part of a PCN who sign up to the Network Contract DES which details our core requirements and entitlements.
What benefits do Primary Care Networks have for patients?
- They offer a larger range of care services that will be close to patients' homes, as well as improved access
- PCNs work with a wider range of health and community services.
- Patients will be able to receive support for more complicated conditions, and will have access to the health and care services that can support them
- Patients will be able to have more of a role in making decisions around their own health and the care they receive
Our Vision
Our vision as a PCN is to address health inequalities within our community. We are focused on improving health outcomes for our patients. Our Clinical priorities are:
- Obesity- especially with cancer/diabetes/cardiovascular illness
- Promoting fitness, physical and mental health
- Reducing health inequalities: promoting cancer screening and health checks
Some key components of the future PCN may include:
- Advanced Technology
- Data-Driven insights
- Patient Empowerment
- Collaborative Care
Overall, the future vision of a PCN is focused on improving patient outcomes and enhancing the overall patient experience through the use of collaborative care models, while maintaining the independence of an individual practices.
