Doctor Clinic – Statement of Purpose

Description

A CQC statement of purpose should read something like this…This doctor clinic is a General Practice Partnership open to all patients living within our Practice boundary. We are a General Medical Service Practice offering Primary care services for the diagnosis and prevention of disease. We help patients to manage their health and prevent illness. Our Health Professionals assess, diagnose, treat and manage illness. We carry out screening for some diseases and promote general health and wellbeing. Our Health Professionals act as a patient’s advocate, supporting and representing a patient’s best interests to ensure they receive the best and most appropriate health and/or social care. Our Health Professionals also provide the link to further health services and work closely with other healthcare colleagues. We may also arrange hospital admissions and referrals to other services and specialists and link with secondary and community services about patient care, taking advice and sharing information where needed. We also collect and record important information from other healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of our patients. Our Health Professionals are also involved in the education and training of FY2 doctors, practice staff and other healthcare professionals.
