Provider Development and our support to emerging federations
One of the priority work areas for Londonwide LMCs is on Provider Development and how we as an organisation support emerging federations wherever they are developing. We have teamed up with Healthy London Partnerships to deliver this work and following on from our successful joint provider development launch 4 November 2015 are now looking to progress this work in a number of ways.
Some of this work involves finalising plans for a Londonwide Federated network and we will also be working with federations to organise events at Pan London, SPG and Borough levels to provide practical support going forward.
If you wish to be part of this work leading to greater communication and sharing of good practice between federations across London, as well as ensuring much needed practical advice and support is available please email Greg Cairns at greg.cairns@lmc.org.uk, Ann Ayamah at ann.ayamah@lmc.org.uk or Sarah Martyn at sarah.martyn@lmc.org.uk
Our aim is to secure the future of General Practice across London, by making accessible the tools to help federations become effective providers.
We look forward to hearing from you.
