Working Hours: Health
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department is taking to help ensure that primary care services are accessible to night workers during their normal waking hours.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock
To accommodate patients who may not be able to access general practices during core opening hours, integrated care boards in England are required to provide general practice out of hours services from 18:30 to 08:00 on weekdays, all weekends, and on bank holidays.
