The Black Country and West Birmingham has 208 GP practices, all of which are members of our CCG as well as providing primary care services to local people. 

Register with a GP

It’s very important to be registered with a GP, so you can access healthcare when you need to. Your GP can support with your mental and physical health, and they’re usually the first service you should contact when you have a problem that you can’t self-care for at home. GPs are here to help everybody, so you don’t need a permanent address or proof of immigration status to register.

Primary Care Networks

All our GP practices, and most practices in England, work together in groups known as Primary Care Networks (PCNs). These bring together a group of closely connected local practices, along with community, mental health, social care, pharmacy, hospital and voluntary services to work together in the best interests of their local population. 

PCNs aim to further improve access, availability and quality of primary care sevices locally by: 

  • Increasing the number of healthcare staff working in and with GP practices
  • Giving people access to a wide range of support for their needs
  • Developing community teams to support people in their own homes
  • Expanding the services available in GP practices. 

Our PCNs played an important role in the roll-out of the COVID-19 vaccination, by working together across practices and with partners to organise clinics, invite eligible patients and ensure the vaccines were available and premises were safe. Most GP practices could not have done this alone, and this is just one example of the benefits of working together as a PCN.

PCNs are based on GP registered lists, not on numbers or types of practice, and they typically serve natural communities of around 30,000 to 50,000 people. 

A key feature of PCNs is the addition of new roles into GP practices to help GPs focus their skills where they are most needed, for example diagnosing and treating patients, or referring to the right specialist. These important supporting roles include:

  • Clinical pharmacists
  • Social prescribing link workers
  • First contact physiotherapists 
  • Physician associates
  • Community paramedics.

This “Who’s Who” guide gives more detail on the different roles that can be found in our practices, and you can watch the video below to learn more.
