Attached Staff

We work with the Norfolk and Suffolk (Mental Health) Foundation Trust (NSFT) to provide Mental Health support within the practice.

Mental Health Practitioner

Mental health practitioners support adults whose needs cannot be met by local talking therapies, but who may not need ongoing care from secondary mental health services.

Mental Health & Wellbeing Coaches

Uses coaching skills to support people to make conscious and informed health choices, change behaviours and encourage proactive management and prevention of illness. 

MIND Enhanced Recovery Worker

Supports patients aged 14 and over, who need support with their mental health, who are ill, lonely or isolated, or
who have complex social needs which affect their wellbeing. MIND recovery workers are not
counsellors, nor are they trained mental health professionals.

We have our own Social Prescriber who can identify unmet needs, especially for the frail and vulnerable, those at risk of hospital admission, loss of independence or those coming toward the end of their lives spending time getting to know patients and their carers, and referring patients to appropriate VCS (voluntary, community and social enterprise) services. 

Benefits to patients:
  • People with Long Term Conditions and their carers benefit from access to additional, non-clinical support options via primary care.
  • Patients experience positive outcomes associated with their health and wellbeing, and
  • Patients can become less socially isolated and more independent.

The first contact physiotherapist (FCP) service allows patients contacting their GP surgeries with musculoskeletal pain to be seen quickly by a specialist musculoskeletal physiotherapist. They will be able to quickly assess, diagnose and provide information on appropriate individualised rehabilitation and management. 

Benefits to patients are:
  • Quick access to expert physiotherapy assessment, diagnosis, treatment and advice.
  • Prevention of short-term problems becoming long-term conditions.
  • Improved patient experience.
  • A shorter pathway, so patients have fewer appointments to attend.
  • Opportunities to gain lifestyle/physical activity advice.
