Statement of Care
Under the Health and Social Care Act 2008, all healthcare providers, including GP practices, are required to have a Statement of Purpose. This document outlines our practice's aims and objectives in delivering high-quality care, as well as the specific services we provide. It also details how we comply with standards of care, ensuring our patients receive safe, effective, and respectful treatment.
The Statement of Purpose provides transparency about our commitments to our patients, the scope of care we offer, and our dedication to continuous improvement. By making this document available, we aim to keep our patients informed and engaged in understanding the quality and breadth of services they can expect from us.
