- Radical upgrade in prevention and public

much larger part of what the NHS does

Better Health for London

- Published 15 October 2014
- Professionals deserve modern GP
practices; patients deserve to be seen in them
- The quality of facilities impacts the quality
- f care, and London is letting both its
patients and its health professionals down
- Many of these new or refurbished facilities
should be co‐located with other services, including diagnostics, specialist care, and social care, perhaps through a ‘hub and spoke’ model
