The practice wishes to establish a group of patients who are willing to contribute some of their time to the development of the practice and its health services.
We are especially keen to make sure that the group is fully representative of our patients and therefore invite anyone with an interest to enquire about joining.
Please ask to see Sandra Batty for more information
We anticipate that the group will meet about four times a year, but arrangements will also be made for members of the group who are not able to attend in person, but feel that they would like to contribute.

What is it?
A summary care record is an electronic record which allows healthcare staff to have faster and easier access to your medical information. They will be able to see what medications you take and any allergies you may have. This means that you will recieve safe treatment when your surgery is closed, in an emergency or when you are in another part of the country.
You can look at your summary care record at any time by registering at http://www.healthspace.nhs.uk/
Children automatically have a summary care record created for them. If you do not wish your child to have one, please complete the Opt Out form and return to your GP. If you opt out and change your mind at a later date, inform your GP practice. http://www.thebigoptout.com/
