The practice works closely with the Primary Care Research Network (PCRN) to implement research studies with the aim of helping GPs and nurses to improve patient care. The PCRN has a large portfolio of studies, most of which are running at many surgeries across England. We have carefully selected a range of these studies to become involved in that which we feel will be relevant to our patients. This means that our patients will have the option to participate in research covering such areas as diabetes, respiratory disease and chronic kidney disease if they wish.
