Church Farm Close Medical Practice

With rights come responsibilities and for the patient this means:

1. Where an appointment has been made, you should attend on time or give adequate notice to the practice if you wish to cancel.
2. You should remember that an appointment is for one person only and that an additional appointment should be booked if a second person needs to be seen.
3. You should help to make the best use of the Doctors’ time, eg by REQUESTING VISITS BEFORE 10.00am whenever possible and by attending the surgery rather than requesting a visit wherever possible.
4. You should take appropriate steps to prevent ill health eg not smoking, attending for immunisations and cervical smears etc, if necessary with guidance from the Doctors and Practice Nurses.
