First formed in 2019, our Alliance works closely with Primary Care Networks across East Lancashire to support the delivery of quality healthcare. Our aim is to ensure that the people of East Lancashire are offered Primary Care services that best fit their needs. We pride ourselves in ensuring our patients feel safe, supported, communicated with, and respected, at a time when they may be feeling vulnerable.
• To offer ‘one voice’ for PCNs in East Lancashire at local, Regional and National level.
• To increase resilience for Primary Care in the context of system change, workforce shortages and national schemes.
• To reduce duplication, share good practice and manage risk on behalf of PCNs and therefore practices.
• To gain CQC registration in order to hold employment contracts, provide cost effective back-office support and manage finance and pensions on behalf of the PCNs.
• To simplify the processes of Alliance contracting, employment of new roles and innovative practice.
• To offer Primary Care at scale across the whole of East Lancashire.
• To offer regular Educational Events for clinicians to enhance and maintain their development.
