Integral Healthcare Partnership was established as an umbrella organisation to provide additional support and services to a team of GPs and their practices in the North West and North East of England. Established by practicing GPs, the company’s purpose and vision is to consistently establish best practice and increase the range and number of clinical services available to local patients within their surgeries. Establishing a Clinical Leadership model that can successfully change with the reformist agenda of the current NHS has been key to the success of IHP.

IHP have now grown to incorporate support and manage GP practices from 12 sites across the North West and North East of England , providing an expanding team of General Practitioners, GPwSIs, Consultants, Nurse Clinicians, Practice Nurses and specialised HCAs, to service the health needs of local populations.

The organisations root are established in demonstrating that consistent locally derived ‘pathways of care’ for patients leads to better access, increased satisfaction, reduced waiting times ,more provision of local or ‘one stop’ services, less hospital referrals and therefore increased savings to the NHS.
