Description

GPpractices have begun working together alongside community, mental health,social care, pharmacy, hospital and voluntary services in local areas to form Primary Care Networks or PCN's.

PCN's signal a significant change in the way practices interact, not only with each other, but the wider health andsocial caresystem.

This collaboration will enable care to be delivered to a defined patient population, in a different way to meet the needs of that population.

The focus will be on prevention andpersonalisationof care, whilst working together to make the best use of shared resources.


The West, Outer and North East York PCN, together with Tees Esk and Wear NHS Foundation Trust, are working together to transform our local community mental health services for people with significant mental health problems.

New funding has enabled the PCN's and local GP surgeries, to create a multi-disciplinary team that will work in close collaboration with a wide range of stakeholders.

By working co-operatively, we will be able to provide meaningful support for people with mental health difficulties in a way that meets their needs closer to their communities and their homes.

NMC Mental Health Nurses, Social Workers (England), HCPC Occupational Therapist encouraged to apply.
