PCT restructuring

PCT stands for the Primary Care Trust, which refers to the care given by the medical professional a person would turn to if a health issue was to occur. Some of the PCT’s services include Walk-in Centres provided by the NHS along with NHS Direct, a phone line service for patients, which are managed by local PCT’s around Great Britain. Trips to the doctors, a visit to the dentist, seeing your orthodontist, purchasing medicines from a pharmacy or having your eyes tested at the local opticians are included in the PCT’s structure.
