Healthier & Wealthier service
Please ensure referrals to this service are GDPR compliant. Do not send personal details via insecure methods, such as email.
***PLEASE NOTE: we can only accept referrals from GP practices in County Durham and community-based NHS healthcare professionals working from those practices***
After receiving a referral, we arrange to call patients back for free and offer in-depth advice on benefits, Universal Credit, work, housing, family and legal matters, consumer issues, rights and responsibilities, blue badges, medical evidence needs, accessing specialist energy or Debt advice, and more... we'll check for a range of advice needs, and we can call more than once when necessary or arrange to call when someone is able to support the patient at the other end.
Due to the unique opportunities of NHS Primary Care professionals to have trusted conversations with people right across County Durham - often when those people are unwell, vulnerable, or facing a significant change in their life - Healthier & Wealthier's telephone advice is able to reach people who might never have been able to access advice, even if they don't have the means or ability to travel or get online... and help them improve their wellbeing and avoid future healthcare needs.
