The team at Argyll House Surgery are proud to be an accredited Veteran Friendly GP practice and to support our veteran community.
As a Veteran-Friendly GP Practice, we:
-
Have a dedicated clinical lead for veteran health, working across the practice to enhance services for our veteran patients.
-
Ask all patients, “Have you served in the Armed Forces?” to identify and properly code veteran patients in our system.
-
Help veteran patients access specialized health services tailored to their needs.
-
Participate in regular training to uphold the commitments of the Armed Forces Covenant and deepen our understanding of the unique healthcare needs of veterans.
If you are a veteran, please let us know about your service so we can ensure your health needs are fully supported.
A study by the University of Chester found that the Veteran-Friendly Accreditation programme, led by the Royal College of General Practitioners in partnership with NHS England, results in improved healthcare for veterans.
