Disabled Access The Practice has facilities for disabled patients; this includes a lift and disabled toilet.
Access to Patients Information Clinical information is shared, where appropriate, amongst clinical staff to the benefit of patients.
DNA Appointments Due to a high rate of patients not attending appointments, we will record missed appointments in your medical records and the Doctors will act accordingly.
Missed or Late Appointments If you cannot keep your appointment or will be late in arriving, please let us know as soon as you can. If you arrive 20 minutes late or more, the Doctor or Nurse may not see you. Many appointment slots are wasted because of non- attendance. This causes unnecessary delays for other patients trying to get an appointment.
How to Make a Complaint We have a Complaints Procedure. Please ask at the reception for details.
Violent or Abusive Behaviour We have a zero tolerance of patients who abuse staff or threaten violent behaviour. If this occurs, you will be asked to leave the Practice and change Doctors.
