Turning up the heat on primary-secondary care interface/integration at Best Practice Conference. Vital for patients and staff. Talking about it is one thing but action is another. Please continue your fantastic work @BestPracticeUK @NHSConfed @NHSEngland @wesstreeting @Subcut

Really great piece on blood pressure and the importance of ‘knowing your numbers’ by @DrZoeWilliams on @thismorning. Spot on - many people are unknowingly walking around with this silent killer.

Anyone in England can register with a GP surgery. It’s free. You do not need ID, proof of address or an NHS number to register.
Dr Kiren Collison explains how using the Register with a GP surgery service helps ensure a warm welcome for everyone.

It’s #CervicalCancerPreventionWeek
Cervical screening is one of the best ways to protect yourself from cervical cancer. It’s not a test for cancer, it’s a test to help prevent cancer.
Protect yourself – attend your cervical screening when invited.
