GENERAL PRACTITIONER ATTACHMENT SCHEMES
Attachment
Health visitor, domiciliary midwife or home nurse is responsible for
all patients on the lists of specified general practitioners within the local
authority boundaries without a traditional geographical district.
Liaison
Health visitor, domiciliary midwife or home nurse is responsible both
for geographical district and for the patients on the lists of specified
general practitioners. Where patients live outside the nurse's district, though
within the local authority boundaries, she does not herself visit them but is
responsible for liaison between the general practitioner and the appropriate
nurse.
