Trainee GPs
Advanced Nurse Practitioners
Advanced Nurse Practitioners have done additional training beyond that of the general practice nurse, and use clinical, diagnostic and treatment skills. The role provides an alternative and complimentary source of healthcare alongside the services provided by the GP. You may be offered an ANP appointment for such things as chest infections/ENT problems/skin complaints/Urinary infections for example. The ANP will be able to provide prescriptions if clinically appropriate.
Nurses
Practice nurses are qualified and registered nurses. They can help with health issues such as family planning, healthy living advice, blood pressure checks and dressings. The practice nurses run clinics for long-term health conditions such as asthma or diabetes, minor ailment clinics and carry out cervical smears.
Healthcare Assistants
Healthcare assistants support practice nurses with their daily work and carry out tasks such as phlebotomy (drawing blood), blood pressure measurement and new patient checks. They may act as a chaperone when a patient or doctor requests one.
Practice Management
The Practice Manager is involved in managing all of the business aspects of the practice such as making sure that the right systems are in place to provide a high quality of patient care, human resources, finance, patient safety, premises and equipment and information technology. The Practice Manager supports the GPs and other medical professionals with delivering patient services and also helps to develop extended services to enhance patient care.
Administration/Reception
Administrators/receptionists provide an important link for patients with the practice and are your initial contact point for general enquiries. They can provide basic information on services and results and direct you to the right person depending on your health issue or query. When requesting appointments, they will ask you to provide some basic details this is so that they can book you with the most appropriate clinician. They also perform other important tasks such as issuing repeat prescriptions and dealing with prescription enquiries, dealing with financial claims, dealing with patient records and carrying out searches and practice audits. The team consists of Jan K, Dawn W, Stacey O, Linda C , Siobhan H , Jade M and Julia M.
