New ways of working: social workers in GP practices
GPs consistently say they struggle to access social care, so a pilot was set up to test new ways of working, with social workers being co-located in GP practices. Long-term decisions, post-pilot, have yet to be determined, but it is thought that there will be changes to the main social care service as a result of the overwhelmingly positive feedback from GPs and practice staff.
