Leading And Supporting Innovation

As the population of the UK lives longer with more long-term conditions, the demand on Primary Care increases at an average of 14 million consultations per year.

On the Island here are some of the innovations taking place in Primary Care to ensure our patients receive safe, timely, appropriate and effective care.

• Escape Pain Clinics

  Our Health and Wellbeing Coaches have been piloting a group movement programme designed to help improve the lives of people living with chronic hip, knee and back pain on the Island.

• Cancer care reviews

  One Wight Health's team of Social Prescribers work across Isle of Wight Primary Care - with patients able to access the service via their GP practice or by referring themselves.
