Wiltshire Investors in Carers: GP Surgery Speaker

In April, four roadshow events took place to officially launch the GP Accreditation scheme in Wiltshire. 

The roadshows were held across the County in Calne, Devizes, Salisbury and Trowbridge and staff from GP Practices, including, GPs, Practice Managers, Practice Nurses and frontline Practice staff, were invited to attend, along with Carers and members of other statutory and voluntary organisations.

The roadshows were incredibly successful with many practices agreeing to undertake the GP Accreditation Scheme. The roadshows involved speakers from Carer Support Wiltshire, from various GP Practices and a short DVD from a Carer.

Emmy Butcher, Practice Manager at Beversbrook Medical Centre in Calne, was filmed at the Trowbridge event where she spoke about why it is so vital that GP surgeries offer their support to Carers in Wiltshire through sharing good practice used at Beversbrook surgery in Calne.
