What is a Primary Care Network?
Since the NHS was created over 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.
The PCN is a fantastic service and they can provide support for a variety of issues these include weight management, sleep problems and social prescribers.
