'Fundamental changes in the Health Service demand a radical shift
in approaches to patient core. The NHS is becoming increasingly led
by the primary care sector. This has a greater meaning than simply
more involvement of GPs in secondary care purchasing. It means that
we start from where the patient is, in their own home and
community. We provide care for them there and only move them into
secondary services if and when it is appropriate to do so.
'Extending Primary Care shows that it is possible to experiment
beyond traditional boundaries in these areas. It will provide
encouragement to people who work in some of these difficult
settings by showing what can be done... This book could not be more
timely as a resource to many managers who will need to extend their
own understanding of primary care - in the fullest sense of the
whole team of people in primary care and the associated community
health services.' From the Foreword by Barbara Stocking
