Miss Alex Holden – Female
General Practice Assistants
As part of the wider team in general practice, General Practice Assistants provide a support role, carrying out administrative tasks, combined in some areas with certain clinical duties. They can help to free up GPs time and contribute to the smooth running of appointments, improving patients experience in the surgery.
Improving patient flow within surgery hours, increasing the time efficiency of appointments, and reduction of waiting times; supporting patient experience by ‘translating’ or reiterating information from the GP, reduce time spent by GPs on managing correspondence.
