Page 3 South Reddish Medical Centre Important Reminders Update your contact details Reminder that the Practice introduced MJog, a Patient Messaging Ser- vice in August last year to improve uptake and to reduce administrative costs ie postage, stationery. This allows text messages to be sent to patients to remind them of their appointments (and to cancel if neces- sary) to book their review, NHS health check or flu vaccination appoint- ment if required To support introduction and further expansion of this new service, it is essential that we update your records. Safeguards have been put in place to ensure that emails & text messages are only sent to those pa- tients where consent has been recorded to undertake this form of communication by requesting that patients when either contacting or visiting the surgery complete a Communication Consent Form to pro- vide us with both mobile numbers and email addresses. Medication Reviews Reminder The Practice would like to stress the importance of the need for regular review of repeat medication. Please remember to attend your review appointment, as medication may not be issued as you may re- quire blood tests to support the Dr reauthorising your medication on repeat prescription. Extended Hours Surgeries Reminder that Extended Hours appointments were introduced to help patients access care if they are prevented by work commitments from at- tending surgery during our core hours of 8.00am – 6.30pm. Under the Extended Hours Scheme, we provide a range of options including: Doctor Nurse HCA Tuesday 18:30-19.30 18:30-19:30 Thursday 07:30-08:00 07:30-08:00 Sat (1 per month) 08:00-10:00 08:00-10:00 08:00-10:00 The Practice provides an average 4 hours of additional Doctor/Nurse led appointments per week under this scheme, so it is important that patients telephone the Practice to check for specific surgery availability. Page 4 South Reddish Medical Centre Travel Vaccinations Reminder with summer holidays on the horizon!! Book your appointment for travel vaccinations 6 weeks in advance of your holiday otherwise it may be difficult to accommodate you as we have a lim- ited number of appointment slots available. We are obliged to provide a travel vaccination service to practice registered patients on the following basis: Tetanus, Typhoid and Hepatitis A vaccination Advice on other recommended travel vaccinations The practice is not a designated Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre (YFVC) It should be noted that although we can provide advice and guidance on oth- er travel vaccinations you may need to attend a private travel clinic at a cost to yourself to receive them. Malaria tablets can be purchased from many chemists and supermarkets. Please speak to our Practice Nurse for further information. It should also be noted that to offer you full protection the vaccinations nec- essary or recommended for the country or area you are visiting must be ad- ministered at least 2 weeks prior to departure on your holiday. THEREFORE PLEASE BOOK YOUR APPOINTMENT EARLY TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT!! A reminder for back packers or people with complex itineraries to book asap as some private vaccines need to be given over a couple of months. Page 5 NHS Hay Fever Hay fever, also called allergic rhinitis is most common in early spring and the summer months. It occurs as a reaction to pollen from grass, tress and weeds, affecting both adults and children. What are the symptoms? Itchy eyes/ throat Sneezing, blocked/runny nose Watering, red eyes (allergic conjunctivitis) Headaches, blocked sinuses Shortness of breath Tiredness The sensation of mucus running down the back of the throat, which can also be a symptom, is called ‘post-nasal drip’ How Do I Manage Hay Fever? Avoiding the allergen and appropriate use of antihistamine tablets Find our 3 top tips below: 1. Monitor pollen forecasts daily and stay indoors wherever possible when the count is high (generally on warmer, dry days). Rain washes pollen from the air so counts should be lower on cooler, wet days 2. On high pollen days, shower and wash your hair after arriving home and change your clothing Avoid drying washing on a clothes-line outside when pollen counts are high Antihistamines can be purchased from most supermarkets for a small cost (eg £1.99 from Superdrug).

  • Closed Pubs Blight Area
    NOVEMBER 2006 NUMBER 267 Closed Pubs Blight Area ownscapes across the Opening Times area Tare increasingly being blighted by closed and often derelict buildings – courtesy of the major pub companies that now control many of the country’s public houses. In the days when most pubs were run by brewing Windors in Edgeley, Stockport – for sale but no buyers companies, not only would they change hands less frequently, but even if a permanent tenant could not be End of the Line for Railway? found the pubs would be kept running by relief licensees. While that remains the case with our local family brewers and some pub companies, the bigger operators seem to have little hesitation in closing pubs and sealing them with ugly steel shutters. Taking Stockport as an example, closed pubs at the moment include the Railway in North Reddish, the Grey Horse in South Reddish and Windsors in Edgeley – all occupying prominent sites in shopping or residential areas. Worst of the lot has to be the former Wellington (latterly TJ’s Bar) on Wellington Road South – the increasing dereliction of this building scars the town centre just as the Town Council is formulating grandiose improvement plans. Manchester fares just as badly in places – the closed Abbey Hey Hotel has featured in the Manchester Evening News’ ‘Get It Sorted’ column, while the Pomona in Gorton is little short of a disgrace. Even the booming City Centre Storm clouds gather over the Railway isn’t immune – the Punch Taverns’ shuttered Pig & Dave Porter has announced that the Railway on Porcupine at the end of Deansgate makes a sad Portwood is likely to close early next year.

  • NHS Stockport CCG 1 Copyright © 2012-14, Public Health England
    Stockport Clinical Commissioning Group Community Mental Health Profile 2014 Good mental health is vital for us all to live happy, productive and fulfilled lives. These Mental Health Profiles provide a brief overview of mental illness prevalence, treatment and outcomes for Clinical Commissioning Groups, and for Health and Wellbeing Boards, to inform planning across the wider health and social care system. All indicators in this profile are at CCG level, but for the first time, they are supplemented with practice-level data where available. Due to the general complexity of obtaining high quality data, indicators do not give definitive measures. They should be used together with local knowledge and experience of practice to stimulate discussion about identifying areas worthy of further investigation. It is also useful to know the source of the data used and understand how the indicator was calculated; this information is available through the online tool. These profiles have been designed so that users can print out just the first two pages to give a brief summary, using the longer report as necessary. Context No Health Without Mental Health (DH, 2011), the cross- government mental health strategy, notes that at least one in four of us will experience a mental health problem at some point in our lives and one in six adults has a mental health problem at any given time. One in ten children (aged 5-15) has a mental health problem and half of all people with lifelong mental health problems have developed them by the age of 14. Mental health disorders do not just affect individuals but also their families, friends and colleagues.

The government has a duty under this convention to protect and promote play opportunities for all children and young people1.” The benefits and positive outcomes of play have been identified by a range of organisations including Play England and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport. Stockport Council currently has a portfolio of 135 play area across the Borough, which provide a range of play facilities for children of all ages. However, the provision of play areas is not a statutory service and in an era of cuts and limited resources it is important to realistically consider the provision of play areas in the future to ensure that Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council is able to continue to be able to provide safe, accessible, quality and fun play area provision.
