  2. Getting the best services and treatments Opened Urgent Care Centres at St George's and Queen Mary's Roehampton:available 24 hours a day, urgent care centres treat people with illnesses and injuries that are not life-threatening, so A&E doctors can focus on real emergencies. Fielded nearly 40,000 calls to NHS 111: the free, easy to remember number for residents to call when they need medical help fast. New ‘Single Point of Contact’ service: over 1,000 vulnerable or elderly residents have accessed community services such as night nursing, specialist nursing, rehab and therapy services via a single number – NHS 111. Better care for adults with dementia: the new WandsworthMemory Assessment Service provides people with suspected dementia a simpler route to diagnosis, support and treatment and has improved our diagnosis rate.

Our work has cut the numberof falls-related emergency admissions for people age 65 and over. Better mental health care: more talking therapies, improved youngpeople’s access to services and an enhanced patient experience,particularly for patients from black and minority ethnic communities. ‘Make a Difference’ clinical alert system enables GPs to raise patients’concerns about the services we commission, so that we can address|issues quickly and improve care. Encouraging clinical leadership Promoted clinical leadership: our 43 member practices all work in a locality so all GPs can have a say on their area. Developed clinical and practice staff expertise:our Members Development Programme and forums for Locality Members, Practice Managers, and Practice Nurses enable everyone, from doctors to receptionists, to develop their commissioning and clinical skills. Enabled GP-led commissioning: each of our major workstreamsis led by a GP with input from other GPs across the borough, ensuring that patients have access to the services they need.
