If you need help with your appointment

Please tell us:

Home visits

Home visits are at the discretion of your doctor. Please do not ask your doctor to visit unless the patient is genuinely too ill to come to the surgery. A rash or temperature does not prevent patients coming to the surgery and will not endanger others. Simply tell the receptionist on arrival.

Where the condition of the patient does require a home visit, please try to let us know before 10.30am.

You can be visited at home by a community nurse if you are referred by your GP.

Equality & Diversity

All practice staff will support the equality, diversity and rights of patients, carers and colleagues, to include:

  • acting in a way that recognises the importance of people's rights, interpreting them in a way that is consistent with practice procedures and policies, and current legislation.
  • respecting the privacy, dignity, needs and beliefs of patients, carers and colleagues.
  • behaving in a manner which is welcoming to and of the individual, is non-judgemental and respects their circumstances, feelings, priorities and rights.
