WARWICKSHIRE EAST PRIMARY CARE NETWORK (PCN)

We are proud to be part of the Warwickshire East Primary Care Network (PCN). We join Southam Surgery, Harbury Surgery and Kineton Surgery as part of this Network.

The PCN aims to bring local surgeries together in order to provide new and innovative services to patients that would otherwise not be possible when working as individual practices. We hope these new services will bring new levels of care to our patients.

Our PCN Staff

Patient Care-Coordinator: Liz, Hayley, Jodie & Manjot

Our Care Coordinators are often the 1st point of contact for patients who may be referred to one of the services offered by our new PCN staff, whether this be through a self-referral or through your GP or nurse. They will help guide you to the most appropriate service.

In addition to this, they are leading our Healthy Minds Hub whereby they help connect patients to various psychological therapy and support services.

Social Prescribers: AMANDA, Mandy, Joanna & Grace

The social prescribers are a wonderful team who act as a signposting service for patients to relevant local resources which they may benefit from. There are so many different programs and opportunities outside the clinical setting but it is often hard to find the ones most relevant to you - this is where Amanda, Mandy & Grace come in. They can help direct you in all areas such as: benefits entitlement, connecting with local community groups, carer support, befriending services, access to social care, and so much more. Some of our patients may have already been contacted by them to offer services, but anyone is more than welcome to talk to them.

Clinical Pharmacist: MINA

The clinical pharmacists are an extension of our clinical team. They are engaged in multiple activities and you will most likely interact with them in the form of a medication review. In these reviews, they will ensure the appropriate blood tests and monitoring has been completed for your medication and review your current medication for appropriateness. This is your chance as a patient to have an in-depth discussion about your medication and any questions or concerns. They have a strong relationship with your GP and ensure that the care we deliver is seamless.
