The agenda
• Your current status • Data illustrating current situation• The new system and what it means to you• Any questions
![Page 3: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Staff survey
• Patient’s view of service– (Doctor) – clinically good, but difficult making appts and
problems with continuity
• Daily work– Telephone triage very busy
• Ideal work– Manageable workload, with no peaks and troughs
throughout the week
![Page 4: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Why do patients call? Over 80% for a GP.
![Page 5: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Calls by day, Monday much higher – how should this affect capacity planning?
![Page 6: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Calls by time of day – much higher 8-9 am
![Page 7: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Outcome of requests - 17% told to call back another time, generating rework, others given a phone call
“instead”
![Page 9: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Majority of requests are for same day – although strangely many ask for 2 days ahead, any reason
for this?
![Page 10: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Only 25% specified a named doctor, similar views from GP, continuity important for just 34% of consults, lower
than many
![Page 11: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
GP consultations – more on Monday, need to match whole week. Loadmaster will help planning.
![Page 12: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
No of contacts each day that week:
• Mon - approx 255 (27% of week)• Tues - approx 228 (24% of week)• Wed - approx 184 (20% of week)• Thurs - approx 155 (17% of week)• Fri - approx 110 (12% of week)

No of consultations per day of data week:
• Mon - approx 240• Tues - approx 190• Wed - approx 145• Thurs - approx 140• Fri - approx 82

Already, some 52% of consults are by phone
![Page 15: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
But under 40% of these resolved over the phone, and most brought in to see another GP, losing
continuity & feedback
![Page 16: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Your view is that almost all consults are appropriate – though this often changes!
![Page 17: Cornishway Group Practice What is it like to be a patient?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56812d13550346895d91eea2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Key points
• Mixed methods of phone & face to face• Phone may be seen as second best by patients• Resolve rate is on the low side and as a different
GP usually sees the patient, continuity is low as is feedback
• Where continuity is achieved, resolve rate is higher and I suspect satisfaction greater
• Points to potential for system changes
