About us
One Wight Health supports our member GP practices to help them deliver the best possible care to patients on the Island. We host a team including Social Prescribers & Health and Wellbeing Coaches under a Primary Care Contract that support our Island practices.
Our Approach
We aim to do that by providing centralised services that enable GPs to enhance their offer of support to patients.
We also help bid for and secure additional funding from NHS England, where it becomes available, to help support new initiatives that help practices to meet their patients care needs and we work to support general practice/primary care, to make sure it has a voice within the wider healthcare system as it develops plans for the future care for our population.
