Our Team of Social Prescribers and and Care Coordinators support our patients in many ways. If you are struggling with bereavement, loneliness, hoarding, struggling to care for a loved one, struggling with self-care, need support with accessing financial support or anything else that is not a clinical need – they are there to help.
Our Care Coordinators ensure patients are followed up for chronic disease reviews, learning disability reviews, routine vaccinations and more. They also support our Care Homes to ensure that their residents/our patients receive the very best care.
If you are needing support for symptoms of ADHD or autism – our Care Coordinators will support you through this process and to access diagnosis where appropriate.
Nothing is too much for our Care Coordinator Team – if you are struggling and don’t know where to turn, contact them.
