We partner with Solent NHS Trust to employ a First Contact Physiotherapist. This new service provides same-day telephone appointments for musculoskeletal conditions, as well as face-to-face sessions in our surgeries.
We partner with TheYouTrust to employ two Social Prescribing Link Workers and two Health and Wellbeing Coaches.
Our Social Prescribing Link workers take a holistic approach to people’s health and wellbeing, connecting patients to community groups and statutory services for practical and emotional support. They also support existing community groups to be accessible and sustainable, and help people to start new groups, working collaboratively with all local partners.
Our Health and Wellbeing Coaches are trained in Health Coaching and can share insights that can help people change their mindset. They can help with changes related to your health and wellbeing whether that’s through healthy eating, physical activity, sleep, stress/anxiety/low mood or managing long term conditions.
Our Primary Care Network has worked together with the other two Primary Care Networks in Havant Borough to deliver the COVID Vaccination Programme.
