Benefits

We are developing a Benefits Realisation Plan to maximise the impact of the Great North Care Record (GNCR) for all stakeholders, including primary, acute, community, and mental health sectors. We need your insights to shape a framework that truly reflects the needs and priorities of healthcare providers and patients.

There are three surveys, one for health care professionals, one for social care professionals and one for mental health professionals. Please scan the appropriate QR code below to complete the survey.
