You Need Medical Help from Project:London
Nurse Liz

At Project: London, priority is given to people not registered with a General Practitioner (GP) or who have been denied access to healthcare.

Project: London is not a GP practice and does not offer treatment for long-term conditions that need regular monitoring.

Specially trained support workers:

•    Inform people about how to access and use mainstream services.
•    Provide information in the service users own language if necessary.
•    Help people to register with a GP.
•    Help to access specialist services such as dentists or counselling.
•    Advocate on behalf of service users if they struggle to make phone calls, organise interpreting services and by accompanying people to appointments.

Fully qualified medical staff:
•    Discuss health concerns with service users.
•    Provide short-term medical care before the service users are helped to register with a GP.
•    Treat most infections and acute conditions.
•    Issue private prescriptions from a limited list of drugs which will be available free of charge to service users.
