Last week, our Social Prescribing team marked Social Prescribing Day by setting up a stand at New Queen Street Surgery, speaking with patients about the social prescribing support available.
Patients could stop for a chat, ask questions, pick up leaflets and take part in a few games, while finding out what social prescribing is and how it could help them.
There were some good conversations, from patients looking for stop smoking support to those managing long-term conditions. Some had already used the service and said it had really helped, while others said they hadn’t heard of it before and would consider using it in the future.
If you’d like to find out more about social prescribing, please contact the practice.
