We have submitted a bid to NHS England for funding to support the appointment of up to ten clinical pharmacists to work in practices across the Borough. The bid has already been assessed by NHS London and is going to be sent to NHS England for moderation a final decision next week. At our monthly network forum on Tuesday 6th June we explained the details of the bid and sought views on how best to allocate the pharmacists to practices and the basis upon which practices or networks might pay for the resource. This will be subject to further work-up once the outcome of the bid is confirmed. The full presentation, which summarises the bid and provides context is attached and available for download below.

General Practice Summit
Thursday, 6th April 2017, 13:00-17:30 So have you saved the date?? Register now: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/tower-hamlets-general-practice-summit-tickets-31635396322 Right folks. Behind the scenes, your little team of volunteer, self-selected reps continues to meet to put together the event of your (mostly!) young lives. WHY ARE WE ORGANIZING THIS Because we want to develop a shared sense of control over our future. We want commissioners and providers to work together as one, single, joined up group, which we have agreed to call a Primary Care System. If the name doesn’t fill you with a warm glow, feel free to propose a better one. DRAFT AGENDA 13:00-13:30 – lunch, sarnies, food you brought from home, whatever floats your boat and feeds your empty stomach 13:30-14:00 - data marketplace: what’s happening in primary care, outside of primary care, and what would we love to see happening 14:00-14:15 – intro – how can we best use your time today 14:15-14:45 – stakeholders get up and share their story, with power, colour and character. LMC, CCG,GPCG, THT, practice/network managers. (More acronyms, anyone??). Twitter feed for live feedback. And post it notes for everyone else. ;-) 14:50-15:00 - tea 15:00-17:00 - VISION AND PURPOSE workshop 17:00-17:30 - check out and next steps WE WILL THINK IT’S BEEN A GOOD EVENT IF… It kick starts more events. Our aim is to identify the gaps between where we are and where we want to be as a joint group of commissioners and providers (aka Primary Care System!), and agree how we can prioritize and bridge these gaps. NEXT STEPS · We will soon be sharing what we hope to display on the data walls. We hope to get your feedback, and also your local, real life, measurement-backed examples of success and great care. · Isabel and Jenny are coming up with a short survey to get a sense of how engaged/involved you feel in all that’s happening in our local healthcare environment at the mo. We’re still in the process of drafting this, but expect an email to ping in over the next few weeks about this. Your responses will a) help us inform our data wall and b) help us shape the summit. Right folks. Keeping it short and sweet, but there will be more to follow. Till then, have an awesome weekend, and please register. Oh, had we already said that?

All places were taken within hours of the Education and Training Team sending out an invitation. The training is being recharged to practices at cost price and by combining two courses into one we have been able to save over £1,000, and make the event a more efficient use of practice staff time.
If you have missed out on this event and would still like to have the training please let the training team know. You will then be the first in line when the next event is being run.
