Exeter Collaboration for Academic Primary Care (APEx)
The Exeter Collaboration for Academic Primary Care (APEx) is a multidisciplinary team within the College of Medicine and Health. We have strong partnerships with schools of primary care across the country, the NHS and NIHR.
Delivering excellent person-centred care in the South West of England
The mission of the APEx collaboration is to:
- Establish a research focus on the development and delivery of holistic, person-centred care that builds on existing expertise (e.g. health research including established primary care research, genomics, personalised healthcare, precision medicine)
-
Develop a focused interest in understanding, researching, and exploring new, integrated models of care which cross traditional boundaries of primary, secondary, mental health and social care.
-
Look at new, innovative ways of delivering high quality integrated care that exploit the potential of technology, a more flexible use of the healthcare workforce and which are able to demonstrate greater cost effectiveness in a testing financial environment.
-
Pursue research and education in primary care leadership and service organisation, building on existing expertise associated with the Peninsula CLAHRC and the Exeter Business School.
-
Establish a continuum of education in primary care from the undergraduate to the postgraduate and the established professional.
-
Place research and evidence at the heart of primary care education.
