The Salford Primary Care Together (SPCT) practice is now providing care to the Little Hulton community from the new modern centre on Longshaw Drive. The other practices – Cherry Medical Practice, Dearden Avenue Medical Practice and Manchester Road East Medical Practice – will move into the new centre in the next few weeks. Patients registered to these practices will receive communication notifying them of the move.
With this health hub being in the heart of the Little Hulton community, the site will host services that Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust provide including podiatry, district nurses and psychology, as well as providing a base for other local services including community mid-wives and children’s health. The new Little Hulton Health Centre has been funded by NHS Salford Clinical Commissioning Group, SPCT and Greater Manchester Pension Fund.
