Notice Title

GP Hub Services for Croydon University Hospital

Notice Description

The GP Hubs service forms part of the Integrated Urgent Care Service in Croydon. We currently provide 3 GP Hubs across the borough that are open 8am to 8pm 7 days per week. The hubs will see patients with an urgent primary care condition via a booked appointment. Patients can access the service via NHS 111, webform booking or in some cases walk in (where they will be given an appointment slot). Patients are required to be seen within 90 minutes of their booked appointment time. The hubs are based in Purley War Memorial Hospital (south of the borough), Parkway Health Centre (New Addington, East of the borough) and a hub on site at Croydon Health Service NHS Trust (North of the borough) which allows for Urgent Treatment Centre (UTC) colleagues to re-direct patients to a more appropriate setting. The service sees patients from any borough/ICB footprint and currently see around 4,800 patients per month. The purpose of the GP hubs is to provide a more appropriate setting for patients with an urgent, low-level acuity need. Conditions range from acute ear infection to minor injuries treated with gluing/suturing to minor trauma to hands, feet, or limb. This is in contrast to the other services within Integrated Urgent Care such as the UTC which will treat patients for more serious minor injuries for which treatment and investigations include; X-Ray, pathology, fracture clinic, CT, dressing of major wounds etc. The tender will also require bidders to submit two financial bids for running both 3 and 4 hubs in order to inform decision making on affordability and value for money. Please take into account the annual budget for this new contract is circa PS2.6m. Contract will be for an initial 3 year period with the option to extend for a further two years.
