About us
Canterbury Integrated Healthcare supports the 7 Canterbury practices and their PCNs covering a patient population of around 100,000 and we have worked together for many years.
The local care vision in East Kent is for localities to develop a model of care that enables people to live as independently as possible by delivering high quality, person centred care that integrates hospital, social care, community and voluntary services around primary care networks of GP practices.
The vision for Canterbury is for the two PCNs to work together to achieve excellent patient care through integrated pathways accessed close to home via local GP practices.
The Canterbury PCNs will achieve this by delivering primary care at scale, including:
- Engagement from all practices within the City in the Integrated model of care
- Partnership working with other PCNs, NHS Trusts, community providers and the voluntary sector
- A comprehensive workforce strategy including engagement with the new medical school for Kent and Medway and the new Additional PCN roles.
We aim to work collaboratively with other healthcare providers and support organisations, to enable more patients to be treated in a primary care setting, closer to home.
