Social prescribing, sometimes referred to as community referral, is a means of enabling GPs, nurses and other primary care professionals to refer people to a range of local, non-clinical services. Social prescribing is designed to support people with a wide range of social, emotional or practical needs, and many schemes are focused on improving mental health and physical well-being.
Here at Boroughloch Medical Practice we recognise that people’s health can be influenced by a range of social, economic and environmental factors and we hope to address people’s needs in a holistic way. We aim to support individuals to take greater control of their own health by providing information required to access local health initiatives.
