Practice health checks
Are you looking to improve your practice’s performance and resilience? Our general practice support team (GPS) can provide you with a free practice health check to demonstrate your practice’s efficiency and capability. The check looks at access, workforce, finance, digital, strategy, business continuity and CQC, and can help identify capacity for improvement.
The GPS team takes a guided approach and consults with you by asking a series of questions ranging in complexity to determine your scores in each area. We recommend involving your members of staff who are best placed to discuss each domain and allow up to three hours for the discussion of all areas, to ensure accurate results.
By the end of the exercise, you will be presented with a heat map with scores related to how your practice meets each stage of the questions within each area. The team will also create a list of recommendations on how One Care can support you and add value or signpost you to alternative resources.
Practices who have used this service said: ‘The report was hugely helpful and contained clear and precise recommendations as to next steps we could take. I’m really glad we went through the exercise, and I would strongly recommend it to other practices.’
and ‘It was an excellent meeting and really appreciated by our management team. I would happily advise all to use this service.’
