About us
One Care is the GP federation representing and supporting practices in Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG). Established in 2014, we have 66 member practices across the area that provide healthcare for around 1 million patients. Our vision is to empower general practice. We are a Community Interest Company focused on delivering benefits for our practices.
We offer direct support to practices with many different aspects of running their day-to-day businesses through our Practice Support Team. We also support practices to work at scale at PCN, locality and BNSSG-level, holding contracts on their behalf as required and offering relevant expertise in digital, analytics and communications. We work closely with our practices to amplify their voices in our area's discussions and decisions about healthcare delivery.
In September 2020, One Care established a GP Collaborative Board (GPCB) to accelerate and amplify the representation of general practice in the wider health and social care system. The GP Collaborative Board enables general practice to engage effectively with the developing Integrated Care System and to support development of strong place-based Integrated Care Partnerships. The GPCB brings together all general practice leaders so we can function as an equal beside other providers and the commissioner. The GPCB has GPCB Programme Managers which strategically operationalise GPCB priorities.
