Rebuild General Practice Campaign
Date published: 21/06/2022
Monday 21st March 2022, saw the launch of the BMA & GPDF funded campaign, Rebuild General Practice; with a clear call to action for UK and devolved Governments: rebuild General Practice or put patient safety at increasing risk. Nearly 9 in 10 GPs fear patients aren't always safe at their surgeries.
The Rebuild General Practice campaign comes at a time of ‘crisis’ when appointment numbers are peaking post-pandemic, while GP workforce numbers are on the decline. Campaign leads will raise patient safety concerns and set out a 3-point plan for a General Practice rebuild. The plan will deliver the General Practice service that patients and staff deserve.
