Another great episode to walk with this morning, thanks @drgandalf52 & @BenXGowland for keeping me company. 5 years have gone quickly, I have valued the support my local PCN CD's were during the pandemic - particularly @thevoltmeter and now @Sammyyrra steadying the PCN ship
Join us as we delve into the transformative journey of PCNs with Dr Hussain Gandhi! Discover insights on workforce stability, leadership in general practice, community hubs, and future healthcare reforms. 💡

The BMA has published its safe working guidance for general practice, and it includes a (somewhat confusing) section on the PCN DES. So, should practices leave the DES or not?

Normally I would wait for the podcast to come out to share the innovation, but this is too good! If you want to save over 20% on your practice energy costs go to energycoop.co.uk & join the energy coop set up by Dr Christian Hornung. There's no catch. Podcast coming soon!!

Success for PCNs will ultimately be defined by their ability to deliver change. And they won't be able to deliver change without any capacity

I think I am missing something here - aren't PCNs and the new PCN roles the perfect opportunity for practices to use other professionals to carry out the majority of home visits?

It was my morning listen today and it was a very good one too! Well done @drgandalf52 ! Be great if other PCN CDs listen to this nationally & start using technology to work smarter as a direct result 👍🏻
