Patient Health Checks

All new patients are offered the opportunity to have a new patient health check.

This is your choice and will enable us to find out important information about you. However, your registration is not dependent upon this check being carried out.

It is especially important for patients coming from overseas to provide information as there is no prior history with the NHS. 

Things we need to know about you

Medications

We ask all new patients to bring along details of current medications, e.g. prescription slips or empty boxes.

This is particularly important for patients who are from overseas and registering with the NHS for the first time.

Immunisations

Please ensure that we have up to date details of any immunisations that you have had. We ask parents to bring along the details of their children's immunisations.

Past medical history

We ask all new patients to bring along details of their past medical history. Do ask your previous doctor to help if you are unsure about the details.

This is particularly important for patients who are from overseas and registering with the NHS for the first time.

We do need this information in English.

Temporary Services

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.

You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.

To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.
