Within each Bromley Primary Care Network, the practices work together to provide an additional service called Enhanced Access. The service provides extra appointments during weekday evenings and on Saturdays. There can be a range of general practice services offered, including GP and nurse appointments, routine services such as screening, vaccinations and health checks.
Appointment types will include a mixture of face to face and remote consultations where the most appropriate member of the primary health care team will be able to assess non-urgent medical conditions that are not resolving on their own and offer management of long-term conditions.
By providing these extra appointments, patients will have additional non-urgent access to more local primary care services than are currently provided, including some same day access.
