How a port clinic stopped my leg turning septic and could be the future of NHS care
Fishermen's clinic in Brixham saved Tom Parker from sepsis in a fishing accident and could transform the NHS to prioritize community care. The clinic offers targeted health services tailored to the fishing community, like health screenings and physiotherapy. NHS plans to open 300 neighborhood health centers to provide local care and prevention services, aiming to reduce hospitalizations and improve health outcomes in coastal and rural areas.
