How Do I.?
These are available for people who are too ill,
disabled or immobile to get to the surgery. Please
telephone before 11.00am whenever possible and give the
receptionist the reason for your request so that we can
prioritise them.
Both GPs and Community nurses can visit if need be. A GP
may phone you back as sometimes it may be possible to
deal with the issue over the phone.
We will always visit:
- The Terminally ill
- Those in whom travel to a surgery by car would
cause a worsening in their medical condition or
would cause discomfort.
- Medical emergencies.
In general it is not acceptable to request a
visit because of lack of transport. Buses, cars,
friends, family and Taxis can often be used to get
to the surgery.
