Practice Nurses
Our practice nurses work alongside

telephone queries between 10.00 - 11.00am daily. They are responsible for
general nursing, immunisation, cervical smears, family planning and various clinics.
District Nurses
and Health Visitors
District nurses work in liaison with
the hospital and GPs and can be contacted on 01702 608250.
Health visitors look after families with children under
five and can be reached on 577000 ext 7020. Midwife
Antenatal and postnatal care is often
shared by your GP and midwife who work closely together for the successful outcome
of your pregnancy. Midwives are available by appointment.
Receptionists
They are fully trained and have a
difficult job to do. Please remember that if you are kept waiting or are asked
some apparently irritating questions, it is because our policy is aimed at the
smooth and safe running of the practice.
We need to ascertain the urgency
of particular requests and sometimes have to spend longer with some patients than we would otherwise have allowed.
Zero Tolerance
We strongly support the NHS policy on zero tolerance. Anyone attending the surgery who abuses the GPs, staff or other patients be it verbally, physically or in any threatening manner whatsoever, will risk removal from the practice list. In extreme cases we may summon the police to remove offenders from the practice premises. |
