WE ARE HAPPY TO ACCEPT PATIENTS WHO LIVE OUTSIDE OUR PRACTICE AREA

 

Please note we are not able to provide home visits outside our practice area

 

With options for consultations such as telephone/ video/ e consult and electronic prescribing, we may well be able to deal with your problem remotely.

However, you must be prepared to travel to the surgery if a face to face assessment is required.

Temporary Patient Registrations

If you are ill whilst away from home, or unwell but not registered with a doctor or if you are not registered with a doctor, you can receive emergency treatment from a local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.

You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.

To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.

Non-English Speakers

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups.
