About Northumbria Primary Care
For primary care, by primary care
At Northumbria Primary Care (NPC), we are dedicated to providing high-quality, patient-centred care across our network of GP practices. As part of Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, we operate an at-scale model, bringing together expertise, innovation, and resources to enhance primary care services for our communities.
Who we are
NPC is a not-for-profit organisation that works in partnership with NHS primary care services to ensure patients receive the best possible care. Our practices benefit from the support of a larger network while maintaining the personal, local touch that patients value.
Our model
By working collaboratively across multiple practices, we:
- Improve access to GP services, ensuring timely care for patients.
- Enhance clinical expertise, with shared knowledge and specialist support.
- Invest in new technology and innovation to improve patient care.
- Support our teams, creating sustainable and rewarding careers for healthcare professionals
Patients at the heart of what we do
Our priority is the patient. We are committed to delivering compassionate, efficient, and personalised care, whether it’s through face-to-face consultations, digital services, or self-care support.
By combining the strengths of individual GP practices with the support of a larger organisation, we ensure better health outcomes, more accessible services, and a focus on what truly matters – our patients.
