Description
Our visionary concept of providing a centrally located, one-stop health shop where a welcoming Community GP Centre and Acute Care walk in clinic (for enrolled and other eligible patients* ) is located next door to a pharmacy, x-ray, ultrasound, dental, molemap and other specialists, complete with a relaxing café and over 150 carparks was pioneering at the time.
The Palms has adopted a number of proactive innovative approaches to dealing with patients with long-term conditions, including developing ways for our patients to better manage their own health. The Palms is particularly proud of the marked improvement in patient health outcomes, with a marked reduction in avoidable ED and hospital admissions. As well as these improved health outcomes for our patients, there has been a marked reduction in doctor and nurse workloads and stress levels.
