Many of life’s problems can make you feel unwell

Social Prescribing is a service that GP’s, nurses and other healthcare professionals can refer to in order to provide patients with additional services and support to improve their health and well-being. The service offers one-to-one appointments where people can talk about their concerns and the factors that affect their health and get support to identify the best assistance.

Social Prescribing also helps healthcare professionals care for their patients, as so often, the factors influencing health are complex in nature and cannot always be solved with a prescription for medication.
