NHS Devon

NHS Devon NHS Devon is proud to be part of One Devon. We are the local headquarters for the NHS in Devon.

NHS Devon CCG is responsible for commissioning, or buying, most healthcare services for the local population. We operate in an area of diversity with large urban cities such as Plymouth, and remote rural areas such as Dartmoor. We plan local healthcare and buy services from large acute hospitals, such as the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital, along with community services and mental health services.

We are dedicated to the principles of the NHS – a universal service, free at the point of delivery, where the quality and safety of services is of utmost importance. We are determined to work with our local communities and other partners in our area, to improve people’s health and make sure they are able to receive high quality, local services.

We are working with local libraries, councils and public health teams to provide blood pressure kits which can be borrowed to enable people to check their blood pressure at home. The kits include a monitor, a simple instruction leaflet, a blood pressure diary to record the readings, and advice on what to do if numbers are high.
Our aim is to encourage more people to regularly check their blood pressure at home – and submit their reading to their GP – as it could save their life.
