Our practice is participating in the National Primary Care Collaborative (NPCC).
The aim of this collaborative is to assist practices to develop sustainable and systemic improvements in the care provided to patients and their communities. The three areas that the NPCC is targeting are improved outcomes for Diabetes, Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) and access. As a result of our participation in the NPCC, the practice has continued the Diabetes Clinic and added another nurse led clinic for patients with CHD.
Dr Sandra, practice manager Donna and Nurse Di have made presentations about our clinics at NPCC learning workshops in Melbourne and at the Gold Coast.
We are proud that our practice’s measures have been consistently above National and Local Divisional measures in all areas. www.npcc.com.au
