The Practice Population
The Practice is the main primary care facility serving the patients of Bredon and surrounding villages. We provide general practice services to any patient living, or staying, within our area of Bredon and outlying villages. The Practice has been operating from our purpose-built premises at Main Road since 1989. Our premises have disabled access and parking facilities. We also have a dispensary. We dispense medications to around 87% of our patients.
We have a large population of elderly patients when compared to the county average, resulting in some problems with social isolation, but with low levels of deprivation. The patient list has been gradually increasing in size and the Practice now has over 5600 patients.
Improving Health
The Practice has a strong clinical team that consists of doctors, nurses, clinical pharmacists, an ANP and an ACP. We have access to community and district nurses and ANPs, health visitors, midwives and mental health nurses. In addition, through the Vale of Evesham PCN, we have access to a Care Co-ordinator (working at the surgery), social prescribers, first contact physios and mental health nurses, MIND and other mental health support workers, and ANPs who can do an initial home visit assessments for patients.
Equipment and Facilities
The Practice has a wide range of modern medical equipment, and our policy is to extend the range as often as possible, and as the need arises and resources allow. Currently this list of equipment includes 24 hour ECGs, spirometry and FeNO machines. The equipment is maintained in line with current regulations.
We are a paper-light Practice and use the EMIS Web computer system. We offer our patients on-line appointment booking and prescription requesting via our website or the NHS App.
