Social Prescription

Social prescribing is a holistic (non-medical) referral option used by a range of professionals, including GPs and allied medical staff, as well as non-medical professionals working in a range of sectors, to improve the health and wellbeing of their clients. Social Prescription is the practice of referring people to non-medical or community-based services and activities to address their social, emotional, or practical needs. These supports are then ideally delivered where people live - in their own community. It recognizes that the health and wellbeing of a person is influenced by a wide range of factors beyond just medical conditions, and that may include social isolation, mental health, physical activity, and access to community resources.
