Measles: If you think you or your child has measles and are not in an urgent, life-threatening condition, please call NHS 111 or your GP for advice. Please refrain from visiting a healthcare setting unless it is necessary or advised, as measles is a highly contagious infection that can cause serious health problems for some people. A patient information leaflet is available here. Further information and guidance is available here.
To register with the practice:
When you register, it is helpful to have your NHS number. You can use the NHS website to find your NHS number.
Please complete a new patient registration form for each member of the family that you wish to register including children.
It can take up to 10 working days for a patient to be registered from the date it is submitted. Once you are registered we will invite you for a patient health check. If you have any queries, please contact the reception team.
All registered patients are allocated an accountable GP. The accountable GP takes responsibility for the co-ordination of all medical services and ensures they are delivered to each of their patients where required. This is to reassure patients that they have one GP within the practice who is responsible for ensuring that work is carried out on their behalf and for continuity of care.
If you require urgent but not life-threatening medical assistance that cannot wait until you are registered, please call 111. Following a telephone assessment by NHS 111 you will be provided with information about the appropriate service for your health problem. If you are unsure which health care service you need to visit, NHS 111 will signpost you to the most appropriate care for your condition - GP, local pharmacy, emergency department or an emergency ambulance response.
If you have a life-threatening medical emergency, please dial 999.
