GPs are central to the Community Living Well model of care and we aim to work together following referral. We will provide information about the care received by Community Living Well and will contact the GP if needed. If someone referred is not suitable for the service, we will discuss this with the GP and a plan will be agreed. They may be referred onto the appropriate service with agreement of the GP.
