We are running a New to Primary Care (N2PC) Programme for anyone working in primary care that has recently joined. Our third cohort is due to launch October 2024.

The N2PC Programme aims to embed colleagues into the multi-disciplinary teams that make up primary care with multi-professional teaching and cross professional networking opportunities.

Learners begin their learning journey with a Welcome and Induction to Primary Care Networking Day. This is an in-person event and an excellent opportunity to connect with other professionals beginning this journey. The N2PC Programme then consists of clinical and non-clinical teaching sessions. Non-clinical topics include Leadership, QI, systems management, patient engagement, change management, and NLP. Clinical knowledge sessions vary with a range of clinical skills and case study discussions. Sessions will be available to book based on identified learning needs/interests and most will be delivered virtually on Wednesday afternoons.

Expressions of interest are now open. Please click the link below to register your interest and we will be in touch in due course.

Places will be allocated as evenly as possible across the 10 GM localities, with priority given to the following professionals;

  • First Contact Practitioners
  • PAs, ACPs, ANPs and other generalists
  • Pharmacists
  • Pharmacy Technicians

We now also welcome learners from wider primary care working in:

  • Community Pharmacy
  • Optometry
  • Dentistry
