The new GP contract was published in early 2019 as part of the NHS Long Term Plan. A key element of the new contract is the development of Primary Care Networks (PCNs) which bring GP practices together with other local services - such as community, mental health, social care and the voluntary sector - to look after local populations. PCNs help to join up services at a local level, focusing on the

specific needs of these local populations, with patients still accessing routine GP appointments as they do now.

7 of the GP practices within our area have joined together to form the North Hardwick & Bolsover PCN. They are:

>Castle Street Medical Centre
>Crags Health Care
>Creswell & Langwith Medical Centre
>Emmett Carr Surgery
>Friendly Family Surgery
>Shires Healthcare
>Welbeck Road Health Centre

Our surgery teams are working closely with each other, enjoying the ability to share expertise and resources, to develop new services. Our vision is to continue to improve the quality of care that we provide in alignment with the needs of our patient population. Because we are part of a PCN we are able to take advantage of additional staff roles that are now available to support all of our patients. These additional roles help us to provide the right care at the right time, from the right professional.

We want to raise awareness following the recent meningitis outbreak in Kent 💙

Health officials have confirmed an ongoing outbreak of meningococcal disease (MenB), with around 20 cases reported and, tragically, two lives lost. The outbreak has mainly affected young people, particularly those linked to the University of Kent and a recent event in Canterbury.

This is a stark reminder of how serious meningitis can be and how quickly it can develop. Early recognition and urgent treatment are critical.

If you or someone you know develops symptoms, seek medical help immediately.

You can contact UKHSA 0344 225 3861, Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm, if you have no symptoms but are concerned, or have been in contact with a confirmed case or have a general enquiry.

More information about meningitis can be found at: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/meningitis/

There has been a large amount of expired medication returned back to the local pharmacy for safe disposal recently. Unused medicines can be unsafe and cost the NHS millions each year.

Please help reduce waste:
✅ Only order what you need
✅ Check your cupboards before reordering
✅ Return expired medicines to your pharmacy (not household bins)

Thank you for helping keep patients safe and protect NHS resources.
