NHS Warwickshire is the organisation which plans, develops and Commissions healthcare to meet the needs of the local population.

We're proud of what we have to offer locally from leading-edge stroke and heart attack treatments to accessible dentistry and GP services patients consistently rate as excellent. We're keen to hear from anyone who wants to share their experience of healthcare or to suggest how we can improve and develop and you can contact us through this site.

Commissioning
Process by which the health needs of the local population are identified. Priorities for investment are set and appropriate services are purchased and evaluated. Primary Care Trusts do not provide all of the healthcare services needed by the local population, they buy-in or commission services from other provider organisations. Typically this includes local hospitals.
GP
GP stands for General Practitioner. GPs are family doctors.
stroke
A stroke is caused by a disturbance of blood supply to the brain. Strokes are the leading cause of disability in the UK and the third most common cause of death after cancer and coronary heart disease.
