Wandsworth GP Practices. Working Together.

What is Wandle PCN?
Five NHS GP practices in the London borough of Wandsworth – Southfields Group Practice, Elborough Street Surgery, Wandsworth Medical Centre, The Earlsfield Practice and Triangle Surgery – have joined forces to offer their patients a broader range of accessible, high quality healthcare. Our united name for this is the Wandle Primary Care Network (PCN). Although our practices still operate independently, providing GP services and keeping their own patient lists, individual identities, premises and teams, we are now providing certain services together. These include Hypertension clinics, Menopause clinics, extra GP (including evenings and Saturdays) and Nurse clinics, as well as appointments with an array of specialist clinicians, such as Clinical Pharmacists, Physiotherapists, Physician Associates, Paramedics and a Social Prescriber. It is a new name, but it is about providing you with the right services, by the right people, at the right time – closer to home.

Our Clinical Pharmacists can help with expert advice about your medicines if you have a long-term condition, are experiencing side-effects, or have had a hospital stay. They review your medicines and can discuss how they are working for you.
SOCIAL PRESCRIBER

Social prescribing enables GPs, nurses and other primary care professionals to refer people to a range of local, non-clinical services to support their health and wellbeing. Our Social Prescriber is the link for our patients to local sources of support.

CARE COORDINATOR

Care Coordinators work as part of a GP surgery’s multidisciplinary team, working alongside GPs, social prescribers, pharmacy staff, nurses and surgery administrative staff to provide and coordinate an all-encompassing approach to personalised care. They promote and embed this personalised care approach across the PCN.

To kick-start the new year, Wandle PCN hosted a day dedicated to you! Patients booked an appointment or simply turned up on the day to have a free NHS Health Check, to look at their weight, blood pressure, bloods and general wellbeing.
