Long Term Conditions
What we do
As your GP surgery we play a significant role in managing long-term conditions. We believe in working with you and specialists in the community to provide holistic, personal, and high-quality care.
Long term conditions or chronic diseases are conditions for which there is currently no cure, and are managed with drugs and other treatments.
All patients with a long-term condition should have an annual review. The first part of this is usually with a health care assistant or a nurse. At this appointment we will take a blood sample, check your blood pressure, and update other health data.
A GP will review your results, looking at your medical history and medications, and consider how together we could improve your health and management of your condition. This may include lifestyle advice, medication changes or referrals to a community service.
Your second appointment with us will be to share and discuss the GP’s recommendations with you. This appointment may also be with a healthcare assistant or a nurse. If you have more than one long term condition, your second appointment may be with a nurse or GP.
