This page is for members of the public who may be taking part in GP-MATE. If your practice is taking part in GP-MATE, you’ll see a poster advertising this in the practice waiting room. You can also ask at reception if you’d like to know more about whether your practice is involved.

Now that we have made GP-MATE, we want to know if it helps older patients get the best care after discharge from hospital. To do this, we’ll be collecting information from the clinical records of patients aged 65 or over who have recently been discharged from hospital. You can see how we do this in more detail in the flow map below.
