A range of healthcare professionals work at your surgery and in the wider community to help you get the right care when you need it.
Services in general practice and the community are being transformed to make it easier for you to access a wider range of help from your surgery, closer to home, by telephone or online. This is part of the NHS long-term plan to offer people further choice and more joined up healthcare.
More healthcare professionals including clinical pharmacists, physiotherapists, paramedics and social prescribing link workers are being recruited nationally to work alongside GPs in wider networks of practices.
