Practice News and Notices
Patient Survey
We have recently completed a patient survey (December 2011) which has again shown positive results. These will be discussed at our next Patient Reference Group meeting on Wednesday 25th January 2012 from 5-6pm at the Health Centre. All registered patients are invited.
A senior member of our practice team, Alison Swinnerton, is responsible for health promotion and publicity within the practice. Alison and Chris Blunt (Practice Manager) will be keen to take your views and discuss actions as a result of the survey at this meeting.
Choose and Book
We have recently improved our ‘Choose and Book’ service which allows patients much more flexibility in gaining referrals to hospital and clinic appointments. Once the Doctor has decided to refer a patient the new system will give a choice of at least four hospitals and a selection of different times and dates for the appointment. One of our senior staff, Karen Hewitt, is administering this process.
Previously, the hospital or clinic chose the date & time of an appointment, whereas now the choice will be yours. For more information on this new service please go to: www.chooseandbook.nhs.uk
Please ask the GP who is referring you to do so via Choose and Book
Internet Booking of Appointments
Please remember, patients are able to book Doctors' appointments over the Internet. To find out more information please click here.
