PGS MEDICS

With a dedicated home visiting team, everyone benefits. Patients. GPs. Staff.

Home visits for GP practices in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire

We look after a practice's housebound patients and take on its home visits, so its GPs can stay in surgery.

Why PGS Medics

Housebound patients are easy to miss

Not because GPs don't want to see them, but because home visits take time that a surgery day rarely has.

PGS Medics gives those visits the time they need. Patients are seen at home by a clinician who gets to know them.

How it works

Simple for your practice team

1

You pass us the visit

Your team passes home visit requests to us, the same way it would to a GP.

2

We see the patient at home

A regular clinician assesses, treats and prescribes as needed.

3

It's in your record the same day

Visits are written up in your own clinical system. We work in Vision, EMIS Web and Docman.

Since April 2026, PGS Medics has done most of the home visits for Inverurie Medical Group, keeping up the same level of care as the list grew.

How we work

Our principles

Patients: People, not lists.

Housebound patients get prompt care from a regular team who know them. We take the time each visit needs, and plan ahead with patients and their families.

GPs: Genuine partners, part of your team.

We work openly inside your practice. Every visit is in your own system the same day, reported to you each month, and our fees are agreed up front.

Staff: Supported, not stretched.

Clinicians are trusted to run their own list, with a manageable workload and backup when it's needed.

About

We work with practices in Aberdeenshire, and we're glad to talk to practices in Aberdeen too.
When do you visit?
Weekdays, during practice hours.

Patrick does the visits himself at the moment. As more practices join, we'll bring in local clinicians, so each practice has a regular team who know its patients.

Getting started

Three steps to your first visit

1

A conversation

Get in touch and we'll arrange a chat, by phone or at the practice, about how your home visits work now.

2

A look at your visits

We go through your visit numbers and housebound list together, so we can tell you plainly what we could take on and what it would cost.

3

An agreed start

We agree the fee and a start date, your team sets up our access to your clinical system, and we start taking visits.
