Quinton Practice

03/03/2026

We’re proud to work closely with our colleagues at Cannock Villages PCN, who support many of our staff working within Quinton.
Primary Care Networks bring practices together to provide additional services that truly make a difference to our patients and the wider community. Through Cannock Villages PCN, we are supported by an incredible multidisciplinary team including:
• Mental Health Practitioners
• First Contact Physiotherapists
• Care Co-ordinators
• Social Prescribers
• Dietitians
• Clinical Pharmacists
These professionals work alongside our GP and nursing teams to provide specialist advice, improve access to care, and help patients manage their health and wellbeing more effectively.
They also play a key role in supporting community events throughout the year – helping us deliver health promotion initiatives, education sessions and patient engagement activities.
We’re grateful for the collaborative approach that allows us to offer more holistic, joined-up care to our patients.

Please see link to our website. This can link you directly to our submit request.
While we aim to answer triages it is imprint these are still submitted early enough. If you submit at 5pm the liklihood of being seen is low due to the appointments already being taken. We ask triages ro be done before 10am for the best outcome.

⚠️ Weather Update – Possible Service Disruption

Due to the current severe weather and unsafe travel conditions, some of our clinicians and admin team may struggle to reach the Practice safely.

This means we may need to operate with reduced staffing levels today. Please keep an eye on your phone for any texts or calls in case your appointment needs to be rearranged or cancelled.

We’re monitoring the situation closely and will keep patients updated.

Please take extra care if you need to travel.

With the weather cold and temperatures not improving, please take care when visiting the practice.
If you wish to have a call instead of a face to face please add this to your triage. We will accommodate this if clinical assessment allows.
