April 2017 saw the establishment of North Norfolk Primary Care (NNPC) as a GP alliance for North Norfolk. Formed of nineteen practices the goal is to make life in general practice enjoyable again and allow Primary Care to realise its true potential for patients.
With an increasing demand across the healthcare landscape it is important to address this and identify opportunities for change within Primary Care in North Norfolk. It is NNPC’s role, with the support of the practices to identify these opportunities and take them forward to affect system change. Whilst maximising the opportunities on offer, there is an important consideration towards building greater resilience in Primary Care so it remains a viable service for the future.
NNPC provides a unified voice that will ensure practices in North Norfolk are represented appropriately in our local health system. This will allow NNPC to develop as an at scale primary care provider that is ‘ready for business’ in our changing local economy.
