How does an away day for a surgery work?
Before the day we will have a TEAMs meeting to discuss your objectives from the day, so that the day can be tailored especially for your surgery.

Read MoreHow much does an away day for a surgery cost?
When working with GP surgeries numbers tend to be less than thirty which of course impacts upon what you will be charged. Another know factor is how an away day for a surgery works. Most of the design work has already been done and it therefore easier to tailor your away day around this proven format used for the last twelve years.

Practice Managers will want to review this whole period and assess what will be required in the “new normal” and want answers to questions such as:- • As a surgery how well did we cope? What could we have improved upon? • Of the many changes to our working practices what would we like to keep, perhaps tweak or indeed discard altogether? • How...
Read MoreAway Days for GP surgeries after the Covid 19 pandemic
Following the Covid 19 pandemic we believe that GP surgeries now more than ever need to take time out of their busy schedule to review what has happened and how this will impact upon the way forward for their Practice. In our unique “Have Your Say” session the whole team (Clinical Administrative and Reception) are placed in different teams throughout the day and their opinions/views asked for. Accordingly we have adapted our questions to reflect this new changed environment. As a surgery how well did we cope? What could we have improved upon? What did you find the most difficult thing to...
