A senior NHS England figure has been confirmed as the guest for the first-anniversary edition of a webinar for GPs across the country.
Elaine Goodwin, NHSE National Homeless and Inclusion Health Nursing Lead, will discuss tacking inequalities in general practice at June’s ‘The Future of Primary Care, in Conversation with...’ webinar, hosted by Dr Mohit Venkataram, Executive Director for Primary Care at East London NHS Foundation Trust (ELFT).
The series was launched a year ago to share insight and innovation from leading figures across primary care.
“Primary care is the front door to the NHS for communities nationwide, with GPs and healthcare professionals performing a fundamental role in changing how people access care and how the system changes to provide the care that people want and need,” said Dr Venkataram.
“The Future of Primary Care has provided a fantastic platform to look in detail at key themes as part of that work and to hear from experts in their respective fields.”
He added: “It has also generated incredible engagement with primary care professionals across the country and highlighted just how valuable their role is in shaping a healthier Britain.”
