Social Prescribing
Wellbeing Services
Many things can affect our health and wellbeing. People often visit their GP because they feel isolated or lonely. Or they might feel stressed by work, money or housing problems. Sometimes it's the stress of managing different long-term conditions.
That's where social prescribing can help.
It often starts with a conversation. It might be a conversation with your doctor, or with another person in the practice team. They can refer you to one of the team, like a wellbeing coach, or you can contact the wellbeing coach yourself.
The Mid Devon Medical Practice is proud to work alongside a brilliant Social Prescribing Team. Information on the wellbeing services they can offer you, as well as a self referral form can be found by following this link:
