Primary Care Sheffield Information

Primary Care Sheffield (PCS) is a GP-led organisation. Our shareholders are 79 GP practices in Sheffield covering over half a million patients. As well as providing a unified voice for general practice in the city, we play an active role both within our Accountable Care Partnership (ACP) and the wider South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw Integrated Care System (ICS). General practice working at scale through PCS enables us to: • Improve the quality of GP referrals into secondary care with the provision of education, support and referral guidance to practices across seven outpatient specialities. • Provide evening and weekend appointments, 52 weeks-a-year, with GPs, nurses, physiotherapists and phlebotomists at six sites around the city. • Deliver core general practice through the Clover Group of seven GP practices • Operate 24hr ECG and vasectomy clinics and the NHS Healthchecks programme for the city • Provide governance and support to practices to enable them to work together in neighbourhoods We’re ambitious for our shareholders and so we continue to work hard, both with providers and commissioners, to find new ways of maximising positive patient outcomes and experiences.
