Making joined-up care… click.
We believe primary care should be easy to navigate, and tailored around the needs of our community.
So that’s what we’re here to do. Formed in 2019 by the 10 GP practices in Worcester City, we’re supporting our community by building a network of providers across our local area.
If you’re a patient at a GP surgery in Worcester City, you’re part of our network - and the resources listed across our site are available to you.
What is a Primary Care Network?
Since the NHS was created 70 years ago, the population has grown - and we are living longer. Many, however, are living with long-term physical and mental health conditions that mean they need to access their local health services more often.
To meet the needs of our changing population, GP practices work together with community, mental health, social care, pharmacy, hospital and voluntary services in their local areas in groups of practices known as Primary Care Networks - or PCNs.
PCNs build on existing services, allowing for more proactive, personalised, better coordinated and more integrated health and social care for people closer to home.
