- Develop the ‘SLAM bank’ to enable clinical and administrative staff to be utilised efficiently to provide cover across the Hub’s practices
- Implement an information sharing platform to enable the sharing of policies, procedures, protocols and best practice relating to clinical care and CQC requirements
- Acute Access – develop an acute visiting service for patients that do not meet the criteria for the current commissioned service to ensure that all patients are visited in a timely manner reducing the burden of visits for individual GP practices across the locality.
