GP Consultation
9th March 2010
Most people want a GP practice that’s near where they live. But some find it difficult to see their GP – for example, people who work full-time and can’t get to a practice near their home during the day. Other people would like to be able to choose a practice they prefer because it has longer opening hours or different services available.
At the moment, people have to choose a GP practice that’s close to them and make sure they live within its catchment area. But the Government is looking at options to change this, so people can choose a GP practice that best suits their needs.
The Department of Health has created four characters who have different needs from their GP practice.
You can use their stories to help you understand the current problems some people experience and the different options for improving people’s choices in the future.
