Reception

Our team of receptionists are your first point of contact. When telephoning for medical attention the Receptionist may ask you for a few details. All reception Staff are fully trained and ask for these details in order that we can help you in the most appropriate way. Our receptionists are very busy at certain times of the day and we ask that you be patient. The receptionists ease the flow of patients for the doctors, nurses and health professionals and keep the Practice running smoothly. They are here to help you. Sometimes they may need to ask for further details. They are not being nosey and are bound by the same rules of confidentiality as the doctors and nurses. All medical information, which is held on your behalf, is governed by the Data Protection Act and staff are vigilant in ensuring that only essential information is made known to other Practice staff. Receptionists are the engine house of the Surgery, doing a wide range of administrative jobs, answering telephone calls and greeting patients at the counter. At times there may be slight delays so please be patient until they can attend to you.

Community Midwives

The Midwives work closely with the Doctors in providing care for all expectant mothers. In addition to running Ante-Natal clinics, they work with the Health Visitor in helping to prepare couples for the birth and care of their baby. The same Midwives will deliver mothers who wish to have their babies at home or in the Maternity Unit and continue to care for them whilst in that hospital and at home afterwards.

District Nurses

The District Nurses arrange visits as requested by the Doctor or hospital for those people in the community who are unable to attend the surgery for treatment. They may be contacted via the surgery.

Health Visitors

A Health Visitor is concerned with the health and well-being of families. Health Promotion, early detection of ill health and monitoring of normal growth and development are her responsibility, with particular reference to mothers, babies and the under 5’s. She liaises closely with the GP’s, other members of the nursing team and professions allied to medicine, such as Social Workers, Speech Therapists and Pre-School Teacher Counsellors. The Health Visitor has specialist knowledge of the facilities and resources available for families and children in the area.
