On behalf of Louise Brady (National Primary Care Nursing Lead, NHSE) and project leads from NHSE, RCN, and academia, we are delighted to invite you to a ‘Deep Dive into GPN Appointment Times’ session taking place on:
Date: Thursday, 12 February 2026
Time: 13:30 – 14:30
Format: Virtual session
This session is part of the ongoing work to develop best practice guidance for General Practice and Primary Care Nursing, focusing on optimising nurse-led consultation times. As frontline General Practice Nurses, your insights and experiences are invaluable in shaping guidance that supports efficiency, effectiveness, patient satisfaction, and staff well-being.
During the session, we will:
• Explore current challenges and opportunities in appointment scheduling.
• Discuss key themes such as patient needs, operational efficiency, and staff workload.
• Gather your feedback to inform national guidance development.
Your contribution will help ensure that the framework reflects real-world practice and supports both patients and nursing teams.
