Job description
Parliament Street Medical Centre is a city centre practice with a growing list size. It has a young population with a low rate of home visits. The practice has a history of achieving exemplary patient care (outstanding CQC rating). It has a high level of patient need around Severe Multiple Disadvantage and the existing team will work to support and develop new clinicians around this.
Bilborough Medical Centre & Grange Farm Medical Centre are in the West of the City, serving a very deprived area of Nottingham. They have a more traditional population with significant health problems and complex needs. The practices are looking to develop and embed innovative multidisciplinary team working and intend to expand this further to include many of the new ARRS roles. Grange Farm provides the lead care home role for City South PCN.
Greendale Primary Care Centre serves patients across Sneinton and St Annes in the East of the City. Also working in an area of significant deprivation with a significant number of patients where English is not their first language, Greendale PCC is an established GP training practice, and the training leads are supporting NCGPA to develop training across our other sites.
Each of our sites have GP and management leads to support the team and they in turn are supported by the NCGPA Medical Director and Head of Practice. NCGPA has a robust clinical and operational governance process to support quality and safety across the organisation.
NCGPA is developing a new model of collaboration across our sites, to standardise systems, share and expand back-office functions. Our ambition is to create a new model of resilient care for the city, preserving and improving primary care services for the citizens of Nottingham.
