A huge congratulations to our Advanced Clinical Practitioner, Ali!

We're really proud to share that Ali has achieved the British Menopause Society (BMS) Advanced Certificate in the Principles and Practice of Menopause Care!

This is a fantastic professional achievement and reflects the hard work, dedication and commitment Ali has put into developing her knowledge and expertise in menopause care. But what does this mean for our patients?

Menopause isn't the same for everyone, and symptoms can affect everything from sleep and mood to physical health, relationships and everyday life.

Ali's advanced training means she has developed specialist knowledge to help patients better understand their symptoms, explore the treatment options available, including HRT and non-hormonal approaches, and make informed decisions about their care.

It also means we're continuing to strengthen the menopause knowledge and expertise within our practice, helping us provide more personalised, evidence-based care and support for patients navigating perimenopause and menopause.

We're passionate about investing in our team's development because, ultimately, when our staff grow their skills, our patients benefit. Well done, Ali! We're incredibly proud of you and lucky to have you as part of the Urban Village team!

This is a reminder to consider taking 10 micrograms of vitamin D every day during autumn and winter. The sun isn’t strong enough for our bodies to make enough vitamin D at this time of year, and it’s difficult to get enough from food alone.

Vitamin D helps keep your bones, teeth and muscles healthy.

Forward this to someone who could use a vitamin D reminder🧡

Last month, we said goodbye to Gill as she finished her time with the practice and embarked on an exciting new adventure in self-employment. 🍀

Gill has been a valued member of our team for 5 years, first working as a secretary within the practice before moving to support our Homeless Service. In this role, she provided invaluable administrative support and worked alongside our nursing team on outreach sessions with the van, helping us reach and care for some of our most vulnerable patients.

A close friend to many, Gill's kindness, dedication, and sense of humour have made a lasting impact on colleagues. She has been a fantastic team member, and her support and friendship will be greatly missed 💛

Thank you, Gill, for everything you have contributed over the years. We wish you every success, happiness, and fulfilment in this exciting new chapter.

We know you'll do amazing things in this next chapter! 💙

🍀 The end of an era... and the end of the brownie deliveries! 🍫👨‍⚕️

Last Friday, we said goodbye to Dr Dan O'Shea, the last of the O'Sheas to leave UVMP.

Dan has been a much-loved member of the team, spending much of his time supporting our Homeless Health Service and caring for patients during his rounds on MPATH. His kindness, compassion and dedication have made a real difference to many people, and he has been a fantastic colleague to work alongside.

While we're sad to see him go, we're excited for him as he begins a new chapter at his new practice. Dan will be greatly missed by staff and patients alike.

And, of course, no farewell post would be complete without a special mention of his famous brownies🍫😊

From everyone at UVMP, thank you for everything you've done and for being such a valued part of our team. We wish you all the very best for the future and every success in your new role.

Today Dr Faye Marland joined the GP Partnership team at UVMP. Faye has worked at the practice in a salaried role for a number of years and works across all aspects of the practice

A GP Partner is more than a doctor working at the practice. They are one of the people who owns and leads the practice, taking responsibility for how it is run, the care we provide, our team and the services we develop for our patients.

GP Partners work alongside the wider practice team to make decisions about our future and make sure we continue to meet the needs of our community.

So when we welcome a new GP Partner to Urban Village Medical Practice, it is a pretty big deal. Faye will be helping to shape the future of UVMP alongside Dr Shaun Jackson, Dr Jen Greenlaw and Dr Emma North.

Congratulations Faye from the whole team and community of UVMP

Good Luck Jane 🧡💙

Last week, we also said a heartfelt goodbye to Jane after an incredible 12 years at UVMP 😢

As one of our Operations Managers, Jane had been at the heart of so much of what we do, making a lasting impact on our team, our practice, and the people around her.

She has been more than a colleague for many of us, she has been a friend and someone who is genuinely loved and respected by all who have had the pleasure of working with her.

Jane will be missed dearly, but we are so excited to see what the future holds for her as she begins the next chapter of her career.

From everyone at UVMP, thank you for your dedication, hard work, friendship, and support over the years. We wish you every success and happiness in your future career. 💙
