Usually, patients are referred to the Care Coordination team by a GP or nurse. If during your consultation your GP or nurse thinks you may benefit from being managed by the Care Coordination team they will ask your consent to refer you on. If you agree, the Care Coordination team will assess your case before contacting you with more information. You will never be managed by the Care Coordination team without your prior consent.
You can also request to be managed by the Care Coordination team without a referral from your GP by contacting the support team. You can contact the support team by emailing gpathand@nhs.net or calling +44 (0) 330 808 2217
