Concerns have been raised over the provision of medical care for Glasgow's homeless, after GPs claimed there was a “lack of consultation” over the closure of a homeless practice that had been operating for 20 years.
The Hunter Street homeless practice, established in 2004, came to an end on March 31 this year with 166 patients offered the opportunity to be transferred to a new GP based on their postcode.
The decision to close the practice came as part of a reorganisation of the Health and Social Care Partnership’s Complex Needs Service (CNS).
