Partners

At Communitas we build and maintain close working relationships with all our partners, from commissioners to local GPs, ensuring patients have access to the highest quality services from referral through to treatment.

Commissioners

As a group of professionals who have invested our expertise in the NHS we are personally invested in the NHS 5 Year Forward Vision. Our community of specialist clinicians provide the highest level of clinical treatment and are dedicated to the pro-active management of health conditions. We understand the need to reduce demand on secondary and primary care resources by encouraging self-management wherever appropriate.

GP Referrers

The ambition behind our vision, to create communities of specialised clinicians who pro-actively manage health conditions, is to reduce the demand on you as a local GP by providing clear, local, effective and accountable patient pathways.

GPs are the principal link to our patients, so we are committed to establishing a relationship with them that reduces their workload and enables them to focus on their own responsibilities as a General Practitioner.

We encourage feedback from healthcare professionals to influence improvements to our services. Clinicians with any queries, concerns or comments should e-mail our team at: intermediate.services@nhs.net

Our ambition is to create the best possible community of specialised clinicians who provide clinical treatment and pro-active management programmes to cure and prevent skin conditions.

Each of our clinics is headed up by a consultant, advising our dedicated GPwER team, and supported by specialist nurses and experienced administration staff. We’re a team with a vision and strong sense of purpose and we’re constantly on the lookout for kindred spirits who will work within our teams, stretch us and also be prepared to stretch themselves.

Secondary Care Partners

We are committed to helping to reduce the demand for secondary care through our community provision.

When we do refer a patient to you we will do our utmost to work with you to ensure you have all the information you need to report back and work with us to ensure that the intervention from secondary care helps our patient return to life as normal in their community.
