How the Practice Grade works

Updated with GP Patient Survey (2026 survey) and Appointments in General Practice (August 2026)

GP practices in Gosport

Sorted by the Practice Grade, highest first

Practice	Practice Grade	Response rate	Survey answers
1The Willow GroupHighest grade	68.3	33.3%	117
Blossom Health - Gosport	63.7	38.8%	118
Bridgemary Medical Centre	70.2	27.8%	105
Rowner Health Centre	60.3	28.7%	132
Solent View Medical Practice	73.4	36.9%	120

The Practice Grade is on a scale of 0 to 100. The response rate and the number of survey answers show how large the base is: more answers give a surer grade. The trend column shows overall experience (the share of patients who describe the practice as good), 2024–2026, from the GP Patient Survey (question 32). It is the survey part of the Practice Grade, not the grade itself. Practices with fewer than 3 yearly results are shown without a curve.

The practices without a place follow the ranked ones, A to Z, with their figures: those with too few survey answers, those that serve one group of patients, and those the grade cannot place clearly.

Flu vaccination in Hampshire, winter 2025 to 2026

81.3% of patients aged 65 and over registered with GP practices in Hampshire had a flu vaccine between 1 September 2025 and 28 February 2026 (263,759 of 324,606). England: 74.5%.

UKHSA publishes flu vaccine uptake for counties and unitary authorities, not for districts. These figures are for Hampshire, the county that Gosport is in.

Who	Hampshire	England
Aged 65 and over263,759 of 324,606	81.3%	74.5%
Under 65 in a clinical risk group103,570 of 207,030	50.0%	40.6%
Pregnant women7,128 of 14,013	50.9%	38.4%
Children aged 27,528 of 12,883	58.4%	43.5%
Children aged 38,284 of 13,651	60.7%	44.8%

The counts follow the GP practice, not where people live. They include vaccinations given in GP practices, pharmacies and other places that are recorded in the GP record. 99.3% of practices sent data. UKHSA says the number counted as pregnant may be too high, so uptake among pregnant women is probably understated.

This card shows flu only. We have not found local authority figures for last winter’s COVID-19 vaccination from UKHSA.

Talking therapies for the NHS area covering Gosport, August 2026

About 1,435 people finished a course of NHS Talking Therapies in the NHS area that covers Gosport in August 2026. Of them, 76% started treatment within 6 weeks of referral and 91% within 18 weeks. The national standards are 75% and 95%.

England: 83.4% started within 6 weeks and 97.5% within 18 weeks (51,269 people finished a course in August 2026).

These figures are for the NHS area that commissions the service, not for Gosport and not for any GP practice. Most people refer themselves, so they say nothing about the quality of a practice.

Only people who finished a course in the month are counted, so people still waiting are not. Counts are rounded to the nearest 5, rates to the nearest whole per cent, and NHS England hides numbers under 5. One month can move by several points.

Hospital care and dementia

Measure	Gosport	England
Emergency hospital admissions for falls, per 100,000 people aged 65 and over2024/25, age-standardised, likely range 1,241 to 1,587	1,406	1,958
Hip fractures, per 100,000 people aged 65 and over2024/25, age-standardised, likely range 377 to 579	470	536
Estimated dementia diagnosis rate, people aged 65 and over2026, as at 31 March, likely range 57.2 to 72.2	65.1%	66.3%

The hospital figures are age-standardised, so an older population does not raise them. Since 2022/23 some hospital trusts report same-day emergency care in another dataset, which can lower the admissions counted.

The dementia rate is the number of people with a recorded diagnosis out of the number estimated to have dementia. It is counted by where the practice is, not where patients live.

Care homes

Measure	Gosport	England
Care home beds per 100 people aged 75 and over2025	7.0	8.3

Beds are counted where the home is, not where its residents come from, and people under 75 also live in care homes.
