In this edition of PCC Insight we consider the challenges that the service has faced over the last couple of years and the opportunities that has brought.
Our article “Access in the new normal” considers what this has meant for primary care. We include an interview with Symphony, an example of practices successfully working with a trust and the associated challenges and opportunities. We start a series of premises blogs considering opportunities with the estate, and how these can support environmental and population health gains. Personal success is considered looking at individuals self-belief and what the limiting factors of success may be.
As integrated care boards are set to become statutory organisations in July it is time to start to consider the changes this may bring and opportunities. For all organisations it’s a time to stocktake and consider where you want to go and why – what are the challenges you want to overcome? Consider how you can put patients at the centre, how you can identify and engage with the right partners – develop a clear shared vision and objectives and identify the opportunities that system working at whatever level, primary care network, Place or integrated care system may present.
Although the last years have been challenging, and we recognise the pressure all front line staff are facing it is now an opportunity to move forward and the best way to exploit the opportunities is to be clear what you would like to achieve either as an individual or organisation. PCC is supporting individuals through our leadership, personal and team development programmes, and organisations through our expert facilitation and ability to bring partners together to agree a direction and plan for the future.
