Getting Started Series: Group Consultations and Virtual Group Consultations
2023-10-18 12:30 - 14:00 (Europe/London)
Group and Virtual Group Consultations (An Introduction)
The ‘Getting Started’ series is designed to help you think through how you are going to approach any
improvement you want to make in practice. It consists of the Project Outline, a generic overview for any
potential improvement project and a series of project worksheets, which follow the outline and are designed
to guide you through how your project could work in practice about specific issues. Each worksheet has been developed by GPs and practice managers from the Primary Care Improvement Faculty, focusing on topics that are relevant to day-to-day practice.
An example of a case study will be presented to show how you might introduce Group Consultations and
Virtual Group Consultations in your practice. The webinar is for all primary care staff. We will consider new
models of care, the use of technology, addressing demand and capacity issues and the promotion of peer
support and self-care.
It is recommended that you familiarise yourself with the Getting Started Series: Project Outline document,
which can be accessed online through Primary Care Improvement Connect, (follow the link to access documents: https://future.nhs.uk/PrimaryCareImprovementCONNECT/view?objectId=167252581).

Leading Anchor Organisations Workshop 2: The power of procurement – the NHS as a driver of local industrial strategy

Thursday 30th November 12:30pm – 13:30pm: Book your place

Public land should be more than just a commodity. Wherever possible, it should be used to drive social, economic and environmental value and address the wider determinants of health. Nevertheless, land usage and disposal in an NHS context is heavily centralised which presents challenges for the progressive use of land and estates – particularly surplus land. Can we develop local progressive estates strategies? Some places are doing it? What is the art of the possible here?
