Creating the multi-disciplinary team

Making full use of a multi-professional primary care team, helping GPs and practice staff to optimise use of their time to where it’s needed most, is a key principle of Modern General Practice. A panel of GPs and other health and care professionals join Dr Simon Stockill to discuss how the ability to better allocate patients to the right health professional or service supports effective use of staff time and skills, including those employed through the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS). In this episode, recorded in December 2024, we also explore how creating a multi-disciplinary team can support improved ability and capacity to provide continuity of care for those that benefit most, including vulnerable patients and those with long-term health conditions.
