POH

At our GP practice several POHs work in support of the general practitioners.

A POH (Practice assistant) checks and guides patients in specific areas of attention. For this the POH has more time than the general practitioner and works in close consultation with the general practitioner.

There is a POH-S consultation hour and a POH-GGZ consultation hour.

  • POH-S consultation hour (Practice assistant - Somatics) 
    You can be referred to this consultation hour for:
    • diabetes
    • cardio vascular diseases
    • asthma/COPD
    • if you belong to the group 'vulnerable elderly people'
    • quit smoking  
       
  • POH-GGZ consultation hour (Practice assistant - Mental healthcare) 
    You can be referred to this consultation hour for:
    • psychological complaints
    • psychosocial complaints

To a POH consultation hour you have to be referred by the general practitioner. Consultations take place by appointment.

Make an appointment 
You can make an appointment or request a home visit by contacting the GP practice by telephone. 
It is also possible that the POH invites you in writing to come to the consultation hour or wants to make an appointment to visit you.
