North Brink Surgery

 

We work in partnership with a local GP Surgery, North Brink Surgery, who supply an Advanced Nurse Practitioner and a Health & Wellbeing Coach who come in to our premises once a week and hold a drop in clinic for our clients. This ensures that any health inequalities are addressed by giving residents the opportunity to come and see a clinician in familiar surroundings where they feel safe and supported, as well as providing a holistic approach to the healthcare on offer. The practitioners are approachable and relaxed, ensuring we can offer an environment where residents feel welcome.

They offer clinical consultations, and onward referrals as needed including to secondary care, for x-rays, blood tests or to the wider multi-disciplinary team. They will also issue acute prescriptions if required and review long term medication and management of this.

Smoking Cessation

 

At the Ferry Project we offer smoking cessation support to our clients, those who are at risk of homelessness and migrant workers. The support program lasts for 12 weeks and involves regular appointments with Sian to check on their progress and to have a general catch up. Each appointment is very relaxed and informal, with plenty of laughs and cups of tea on hand! Everyone is treated as an individual and the support is tailored and bespoke for each person so that they have the highest chance to succeeding in their smokefree journey. Due to the bespoke support, we have already been able to achieve fantastic results, helping many people to become smokefree, and we currently boast an 82% success rate, 32% higher than the national average!
