With responsibility for pharmacy, optometry and dental services now delegated to Integrated Care Boards (ICBs), there is greater autonomy locally to transform service delivery and patient experience. Join us for an exclusive webinar focusing on optometry, and specifically the approach taken to commissioning urgent care.

Gain valuable insights into how Community Urgent Eyecare Service (CUES) has effectively improved access, reduced demand on hospital services, freed up GP appointments, and allowed optometrists to fully utilise their training. 

Additionally, there will be dedicated time towards the end of the webinar for a Q&A session.
