PRIMARY CARE HUB AT STRATTON HOSPITAL

A brand-new Primary Care Hub has been set up at Stratton Hospital to enable you to see a health professional more quickly. Initially on Wednesdays and Fridays from 22nd May, after its two-month trial, funding has now been found to extend the hub to the end of August, with some additional capacity (subject to staffing) on occasional Mondays.

 

The hubs are offering additional appointments for people with minor illness symptoms, and the staff who work in them will be local Advanced Practitioners and GPs.   

 

You can access the hub only through your own GP practice who will advise if the hub is appropriate for you, using a number of eligibility criteria, some of which are:

  • You are aged between 2 and 70
  • You have a single minor ailment: urinary tract infection, a simple skin infection, an acute Ear Nose & Throat (ENT) condition, for example
  • You do not have any pre-existing chronic conditions
  • You require a face-to-face consultation for medical reasons
  • You are registered at any of the practices within the Coast & Country Primary Care Network (Bradworthy, Holsworthy, Hatherleigh, Neetside and Stratton Medical Centres)
  • You are able to get to Stratton Hospital

We hope patients will find this a useful addition to services already being offered by the network practices.
