| has gloss | eng: Primary care is the term for the health services that play a central role in the local community. It refers to the work of health care professionals who act as a first point of consultation for all patients. Such a professional would usually be a general practitioner or family doctor, depending on locality. However, at the patient's discretion and according to their self-assessment of the seriousness of their ailment, they may opt to see another health care professional first, such as a pharmacist, or in some localities (such as the UK), a nurse. The advantage of this approach is that these professionals usually have immediately available access and do not require an appointment. They may then refer either to a primary care physician or to secondary care. |
