Join the surgery

The Practice is currently registering new patients who live within our practice area (eight mile radius).  As it can take some time for your medical records to be forwarded from your former practice all newly registered patients will be asked to complete a registration form, a new patient check form and provide a copy of their medication history from their previous GP.  Please call into reception for these forms.  Registrations forms and required documents are to be left into the practice on a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday afternoon.

 

 

Accessing someone else’s information

As a parent, family member or carer, you may be able to access services for someone else. We call this having proxy access. We can set this up for you if you are both registered with us.

To requests proxy access, please collect a proxy access form from reception from 9am to 5pm.

Linked profiles in your NHS account

 Once proxy access is set up, you can access the other person’s profile in your NHS account, using the NHS App or website.

The NHS website has information about using linked profiles to access services for someone else.

Accountable GP

From 1st April 2015, practices are required to allocate all patients (including children) with a named accountable GP.

The named GP is responsible for the coordination and delivery of all appropriate services, where required based on clinical judgement, to each of their patients.

  • Patients do not need to see their named GP when they book an appointment with the practice.
  • Patients are entitled to choose to see any GP or nurse in the practice.
