Practice Information | practice profile Our ethos in patient and family care is to promote independence and maintain good parenting, enabling individuals to make informed decisions regarding their own health needs and those of their families.
The Practice is a Personal Medical Services (PMS) practice in the North Dorset Primary Care Trust (NDPCT). We are in the Blandford Locality Group of Practices and have access to GP beds in the Blandford Community Hospital. We refer patients to Blandford, Dorchester and Southampton. We are fully computerised (EMIS clinical system), networked and 'paperlight' including scanning of letters onto patients' computer records.
As a Practice, we support innovation and have a record of successfully piloting and developing new approaches to patient care. For example, we are currently working with NDDC and NDPCT and local organisations to provide opportunities for exercise and fitness in support of NHS policy to reduce coronary heart disease and obesity.
