What is a primary care hub?
Brand-new primary care hubs have been set up this winter to enable you to see a health professional more quickly.
The hubs are offering additional appointments for people with minor illness symptoms, and the staff who work in them include advanced practitioners and GPs.
The hubs are conveniently located across Cornwall, providing more health and care services locally this winter.
