The Pharmacy team are in the surgery every day to deal with your prescription queries and issues.

The social prescriber works closely along side the Care Co-Ordinator, having the ability to sign post and help with social issues where applicable.

Practice nurses are qualified and registered nurses. They can help with health issues such as family planning, healthy living advice, blood pressure checks and dressings. The practice nurses run clinics for long-term health conditions such as asthma or diabetes, minor ailment clinics and carry out cervical smears.

Healthcare assistants support practice nurses with their daily work and carry out tasks such as phlebotomy (drawing blood), blood pressure measurement and new patient checks. They may act as a chaperone when a patient or doctor requests one.

The Care Co-Ordinator works with people, including the frail/elderly and those with long-term conditions, to provide coordination and navigation of care and support across health and care services.

The practice manager is involved in managing all of the business aspects of the practice such as making sure that the right systems are in place to provide a high quality of patient care, human resources, finance, patient safety, premises and equipment and information technology. The practice manager supports the GPs and other medical professionals with delivering patient services and also helps to develop extended services to enhance patient care.

Receptionists provide an important link for patients with the practice and are your initial contact point for general enquiries. They can provide basic information on services and results and direct you to the right person depending on your health issue or query. Receptionists make most of the patient appointments with the GPs and nurses and perform important tasks such as issuing repeat prescriptions and dealing with prescription enquiries. Our admin staff deal with the receiving and scanning of documents, making financial claims, dealing with patient records and carrying out searches and practice audits.
