NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHSGGC) is one of the largest healthcare systems in the United Kingdom, employing approximately 40,000 staff across a wide range of clinical and non‑clinical professions and roles.
Role
The GP Walk‑in Centre is based at Cardonald Health Centre in South Glasgow and will provide urgent primary care services to the local population. The service aims to improve access, reduce pressure on GP practices and minimise inappropriate Emergency Department attendances by offering rapid access to same‑day assessment for patients unable to secure a GP appointment.
