This service is for patients who have been removed from a GP in Salford, following an incident in which the Police have been informed. Special Allocation Service The Special Allocation Scheme (SAS) service is for patients who have been removed from a GP in Salford or Trafford, following an incident in which the Police have been informed, ensuring individuals who have been removed from their previous GP practice due to incidents of aggression can continue to access primary care safely. The service balances patient needs with the safety and wellbeing of staff and the wider community, providing care in a structured and controlled environment at Eccles Gateway. Our team is trained in trauma-informed care, focusing on understanding patient experiences, building trust, and supporting behavioural change alongside essential healthcare. Led by Dr. Jocelyne Rostron, the SAS ensures patients are treated with dignity and consistency, while security personnel and thorough risk assessments maintain a safe environment. The ultimate goal is to support patients to rebuild trust and reintegrate into mainstream GP services. During 2024/25, patient registrations rose from six in Q1 to eleven in Q4, while discharges fluctuated, peaking at twenty-two in Q2 reviews, which now take place quarterly to ensure timely assessment. The active patient list remained stable at around fifty-five, reflecting a consistent service capacity. Face-to-face appointments averaged sixty-two per quarter, while telephone consultations remained high, averaging 105, with patients from Trafford often preferring remote access due to travel barriers. The SAS benefits from integration with the Inclusion Service, a dedicated telephone line, and a consistent team, ensuring continuity and trust. Trauma-informed care, positive language, and clear boundaries help patients feel respected while supporting behavioural change. Regular panel reviews provide oversight, supporting timely discharges and effective risk management. The Special Allocation Service demonstrates the impact of structured, compassionate, and trauma-informed care. In 2024/25, the team ensured that patients continued to access healthcare safely, while staff and the wider patient population were protected. With dedicated leadership, a skilled multidisciplinary team, and a commitment to collaboration, the SAS continues to support patients towards stability, reintegration, and better health outcomes.

Audit Tool for Assessing Trauma-Informed Practices in Salford GP Settings Introduction to Trauma-Informed Care in Primary Care Settings Trauma is a response to an overwhelming stressful event or series of events that exceeds the capacity to cope. The effects of trauma can be long-lasting. Traumatic events can happen at any age and can cause long-lasting harm. They can be a single incident where a person experiences a sudden loss, or they are directly harmed or witnessing harm. It can also be a series of incidents / events and can also happen such as experiencing domestic, physical, emotional, sexual abuse or neglect. Everyone is different and how they react to trauma, or a traumatic event will be individual to them and how the event(s) made them feel at the time; how frightened, under threat, abandoned or humiliated they felt. Experiencing trauma may lead to flashbacks, intrusive thoughts, being jumpy, avoidance or having relationship difficulties. Trauma-informed care (TIC) represents a fundamental shift in healthcare delivery, moving from asking "What's wrong with you?" to "What happened to you?". This approach recognises the profound impact that traumatic experiences have on physical, mental, and emotional health and acknowledges that healthcare environments themselves can potentially re-traumatise vulnerable patients if not designed with care and intention. The Marmot report ‘Ten years on’ demonstrates where change has been made but also where nationally, regionally and locally we have seen the impact of austerity, stalling life expectancy and widening inequalities. Salford has committed to the Marmot principles alongside Greater Manchester commitment to become a Marmot region. The Salford Standards 2025-2026 are enabling primary care to play its part in this and this audit tool will provide practices with a practical means for reviewing and enacting organisational change. For GP practices, adopting a trauma-informed approach is not a niche specialty but a core component of effective, equitable care. As the first point of contact for most patients, general practice is uniquely positioned to: Identify the health impacts of trauma. Build trusting, long-term relationships that facilitate healing. Prevent re-traumatisation through conscious, compassionate practices. Improve patient engagement, treatment adherence, and overall health outcomes. Reduce staff burnout by providing a framework for managing complex interactions. Below is the toolkit that we have created: Salford Primary Care Together (SPCT) Comprehensive Audit Tool for Assessing Trauma-Informed Practices in Salford General Practice (GP) Settings
