A festive message
Dear colleagues,
As we approach the end of the year I wanted to take this opportunity to reflect on 2024.
Once again primary care has provided phenomenal care for the residents of north west London.
General practice consistently delivers more appointments for their patients whilst at the same time tackling important preventative strategies such as rolling out the new RSV vaccine.
This year has also seen you managed the increased measles cases. The launch of Pharmacy First in February brought with it new adaptations to ways of working, especially for our community pharmacist. Our dental colleagues have achieved similar levels of activity to pre-Covid levels.
I am always so proud to represent the primary care teams of north west London and I continue to be passionate about the amazing work we do.
Thank you so much for all of your hard work. Your teams consistently go above and beyond for patients and it is a privilege to work with you.
Christmas and New Year are still very busy clinical periods but I hope you do get a time during those weeks to spend some time relaxing with those family and friends close to you.
I look forward to continuing to help our residents improve health and wellbeing in 2025.
Best wishes,
Clinical Lead - Primary Care
Genevieve Small
