About us
The Bradford Care Alliance (BCA) is a Community Interest general practice membership organisation founded on partnership working and accountable to our members.We are a key partner in the wider Bradford District and Craven system. We work closely with our health and social care partners through the Wellbeing Board, The Health and Care Partnership Board and via the Strategic Partnering Agreement of the Bradford Provider Alliance.
Our focus is centred on working together, and with other innovators across health and social care, to achieve this. Each GP Practice is a shareholder and member of this not-for-profit initiative and, working at the heart of a new enterprise culture, has an unprecedented opportunity to contribute to our future success. Not just by shaping and influencing our strategy, but also in the delivery of this high-quality healthcare.
What we do
We aim to support system integration and delivery of the vision of ‘Happy, Healthy at Home’. We support true integration and the benefits this can bring to patients and the wider health of the population utilising the opportunities offered by digital technologies where they add value.We are a primary care alliance identifying every opportunity to deliver care within our Community Partnerships (CPs), Primary Care Networks (PCNs) and localities. Our key focus is creating opportunities to ensure the future sustainability of general practice within Bradford.
Bradford Care Alliance is helping to shape, and deliver a range of health services together as part of a single contract. By working closely together we are a founding member of Bradford Provider Alliance which aims to work together to help transform and better integrate the health, care, support and community services for the population of Bradford.
