Mersey Care is planning a Community Appointment Day on 30 October for patients within the Musculoskeletal Service across St Helens.

This will enable patients to attend a community location where they can discuss their needs with MSK clinicians, physiotherapists, AHPs, charities, voluntary services and other community services.

It will promote a holistic care approach for patients within the MSK service, including supporting patients beyond their MSK condition.

The purpose of the day is to provide patient services differently, removing some of the constraints that exist in the normal working day and making changes to help people cope with long-term conditions.

Mersey Care's MSK service will be fully evaluating this new innovation and will provide feedback in the future.

If you would like to attend Sutton Health Centre to experience the event and for more information about the Community Appointment Day please email chloe.webb@merseycare.nhs.uk for details.
