Louise Parker's Company Details
Taurus Healthcare is a federation (collaboration) of all 20 Herefordshire General Practices. Established in 2012, it is now well established as an influential Herefordshire- focused healthcare organisation.We support GP practices to be safer, more effective, efficient and resilient. We do this by offering a range of services to GP surgeries, for example back office functions such as Recruitment, Human Resources and Finance, all the way through to stepping in, on request, to run a GP surgery. The exact nature of the services we provide will be dependent on the needs and requirements of the surgery.We also support GP practices by delivering a number of clinical services on their behalf. For example, the 7 day GP and GP Out of Hours Services are both operated by Taurus Healthcare as is a new Social Prescribing service.A final important role of Taurus Healthcare is to represent all 20 GP practices and to act as a ‘single voice' in discussions about current and future healthcare provision. For example, at meetings of the Herefordshire Clinical Commissioning Group, local NHS trusts or other strategic bodies such as Herefordshire and Worcestershire GP Practice Provider Board.Ultimately our aim is to help patients have more control over their own well-being and healthcare, promote the prevention of illness, and to improve access to general practice so that your GP service is consistent 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
