The proposed boundary extension is intended to ensure that patients living in newly developed housing areas have access to local GP services. Holmside Medical Group has a long-standing history of providing primary care to the surrounding community, and these new developments are a natural extension of the population we already serve. The proposed change simply incorporates these new residential areas, which currently fall just outside our existing practice boundary, allowing us to continue delivering accessible, high-quality care to our local community.

Community Pharmacist Consultation Service (CPCS)
The Community Pharmacist Consultation Service (CPCS) integrates Community Pharmacists into primary care.
This means for patients that same-day appointments with Community Pharmacists are available for a range of minor ailments or urgent supplies of regular medication.
The service gives patients quicker access to Pharmacists and their expert knowledge and alleviates pressure on GP practices at the same time.
How it works
Reception and Administration teams know which conditions, queries and ailments can be dealt with by Community Pharmacists and can direct referrals on patients’ behalf.
This is an example of Care Navigation, where non-clinical staff can signpost or refer patients to the most appropriate services when patients are happy to share the details of their need or problem.
