Summary
Mental Health Professionals embedded into your GP surgeries and allocated via the Primary Care Networks.
Please check service availability with your GP surgery.
Service Information
Your GP or practice Nurse can request the service for you from our Mental Health Practitioner who could be a Nurse, Occupational Therapist or Social Worker.
Appointments can be face-2-face at your surgery, on video link or via telephone.
Support will be provided by the mental health professional talking with you, listening to your concerns and worries and how these make you feel. Together you will agree and develop a plan, which could involve you being referred to services and organisations from across the community.
A wide variety of mental health conditions can be discussed and the team are always happy to help and support.
