Categories and Keywords
To save you from having to scroll through all our updates to find what you’re after, there are ways to get there quicker.
We use some simple category names to group news posts together. So, if you are looking for the latest on mental health or health and wellbeing, just pick an option from the drop-down menu to get your news.
If you’re looking for something more specific, try the keyword search option. This will look through all our posts, check the headlines, section names, text and keywords we’ve added and show you the results.
At the end of each post, you might see suggestions for other articles or blogs about similar topics.
Resources
As you’d expect, our resource page is packed with useful information. But did you know there are three different ways to find what you’re looking for?
Categories
First, there are the categories. Like with the news posts, these group together pieces of information.
We’ve tried to make these categories as sensible as possible – either describing you or a particular situation. Hopefully, this makes it easy to find relevant information, even if you might not know its name.
Here’s an example: The Little Orange Book is a fantastic resource for new parents, with practical advice about common conditions up to the age of 5.
But if you didn’t know that, you wouldn’t know to search for the words ‘little orange book’.
By categorising it under children’s health and parenthood, it makes a helpful resource much easier to find.
You can see some of the resources in the parenthood and children’s health categories below.

Directory: Children and Young People
Resources and advice for families, children and young people. Thanks to InformationNOW for compiling much of this information.
-
Proxy Access: Managing Another Person’s Health
Proxy Access: Use this form to request to the health records of someone you care for.
-
Medication management while trying to conceive
Types
Another way we’ve tried to make it easier to find what you need is to group resources by type.
So, for instance, if you are looking for some self-help, an easy read guide, our policies or video content walking you through how to use the NHS App.
These are some easy read resources from our growing library.
Keyword search
Lastly, of course, you can still use the keyword search option. Like the news posts, the search will look through titles, headings and content to bring you relevant results.
Our Team
When we surveyed patients as part of building our new sites, a lot of people said they wanted to get to know the staff team a bit better.
The Our People page is home to staff profiles. Here you can see our practice and network teams, and find out more about their roles and how they help patients.
You can use the Job Role filter to find everyone in the same position or the Specialisms filter to see what your clinical team are experts in.
Here are some of the most recent updates on our staff pages.
What do you think?
Our websites aim to do what patients told us they wanted and to help our practice and network teams.
Why not take our quick survey and let us know how we’re doing?
