Welcome to Social Prescribing at Temple House Practice

Emily Fitzgerald is our new Social Prescriber here at Temple House Practice.

What is Social Prescribing?

Social Prescribing is working with patients in a holistic and broad way addressing issues that don’t tend to be strictly medical, but can make you feel unwell i.e. loneliness, debts, housing worries, mental health, lack of direction/motivation, help to live independently at home, search for meaningful activities. We would work together over a short period of time to identify services and activities that best match your needs and through conversations and information build your confidence to access services.

 

Here’s a little bit about Emily:

Emily has been working in care and support for the past 10 years in a variety of roles which she has thoroughly enjoyed and has a Foundation Degree in Mental Health Practice.
