The service supported people to manage their health and wellbeing to maximise their independence, choice and control. The service supported people to live healthier lives and where possible, reduce their future needs for care and support.

In response to the 2025 National GP Patient Survey, 99.5% of people said that at their last appointment they were involved as much as they wanted in decisions about their care and treatment.

Staff focussed on identifying risks to people’s health, including those in the last 12 months of their lives and those with caring responsibilities. Staff supported national priorities and initiatives to improve population health, including stopping smoking and tackling obesity.

The practice took part in engagement events in the locality. Events had been held with Age UK’s enablement team, who gave out free walking aids to those who needed them, basic life support which was open for patients to attend and cancer awareness which also raised funds for cancer research.

The service routinely monitored people’s care and treatment to continuously improve it. They ensured outcomes were positive, consistent and met the expectations of people themselves.

The service met national targets for the uptake of childhood immunisations. The service performed better than the England average in relation to several cancer screening programmes, including screening for breast and bowel cancer. Cervical cancer screening was the same as the national target for the age group 25 to 49 years and just below the national target for the age group 50 to 64 years. To improve uptake the whole team followed up people by telephone and text and when patients contacted the practice opportunity was taken to offer an appointment convenient to the patient.
