This issue of InnovAiT includes our "Keystone of general practice" update to our 2016 narrative review on continuity! The issue also has a shout out to GP trainers and trainees to write for InnovAiT- we highly recommend this for useful experience of the academic writing process.

Our article on #continuityofcare has been published on @bmj_latest online https://t.co/iZ47PpKNsW We argue that continuity leads to a more efficient use of GP time & may help with some of the problems facing British general practice. With @DocRickKnowHow @PhilEvansCRN

The policy direction for many years in the UK has been to ignore continuity of care and focus on fast access to any clinician. But this Analysis argues a renewed focus on continuity could in fact help reduce the pressures on general practice and the #NHS https://t.co/eN3HlqmU68

Please retweet. Are you a GP, practice nurse or patient with views on continuity of care (seeing same the GP)? Looking for participants to discuss Continuity of Care in Primary Care. Friday 24 November: ½ day Travel costs paid DM me if interested https://t.co/z7dt4uAL4D

"What is a Doctor?" by the awesome writer and GP @pwhitakerwriter is a great read. There is a theme of continuity running through the book, well illustrated through stories as well as mentioning the research. There is even a section about us!

Continuity of care: patients with dementia with highest continuity of care were less likely to develop delirium, incontinence, and visit the hospital due to an emergency. @delgadojpc #dementia https://t.co/t4vFViul5B

BREAKING: A NIHR-supported, first-of-its-kind clinical trial to investigate the effectiveness of new oral antiviral treatments for COVID-19 - which can be safely taken at home - has begun enrolling participants today https://t.co/rLWklIz9d1 @oxPrimary Care @DHSCgovuk @NHSEngland

The same GP over time saves lives, reduces urgent care, saves resources and increases patient, staff and GP satisfaction. Now the Continuity of care toolkit https://t.co/747isHBkpQ shows how from #THFContinuity 2yr national programme @rcgp @HealthFdn
