NHS England is in close contact with the local practices who are registering patients from Marske Medical Practice and have been asked to identify if there are any concerns or issues with capacity since the closure of Marske Medical Centre. The majority of practices are reporting no impact on appointment availability. In some cases, practices have taken on additional clinical staff to manage the increased workload.
