At Finney Lane Surgery we are keen to help you with anything that is impacting on your wellbeing and happiness.
In addition to medical support, we have a dedicated Wellbeing Team that supports patients with all non-medical issues and can put you in touch with useful local services and groups.
It is a non-urgent service which can help you with real health and wellbeing issues that can affect your life on a daily basis. It is not a medical or mental health service but can help you with underlying issues that affect your health.
A social prescriber is someone who:
- you can talk to confidentially
- gives you one to one support to help you manage your own health and wellbeing
- can link you to local services and support
Issues the service can support you with:
- long term conditions e.g. asthma, obesity, diabetes, anxiety, hypertension
- mental wellbeing
- housing problems
- financial issues
- social isolation
- relationships
- employment
- lifestyle e.g. diet, physical activity, weight management
If something is troubling you, please complete this form and a member of the team will be in touch to help.
