PRACTICE STAFF

The Practice Manager is responsible for the smooth running of the practice. Should you have any comments, good or not so good, on the service provided by this practice, please write or ask to speak to the Practice Manager.

The Receptionists have the sometimes difficult task of ensuring that appointments, telephones and general office duties run smoothly. Please help them by being a 'patient' patient. They may sometimes need to know the nature of your problem, but be assured that there are good reasons for this and the receptionists are bound by the same rules of confidentiality as the doctors.

Practice Nurses are employed in the treatment room and are available by appointment for blood tests, holiday vaccination, ear syringing, dressings etc.

Attached Staff

The following staff attend the surgery frequently through the week, although they are not based here:

The Health Visitors are fully qualified nurses with additional specialised training in preventative health care. They give expert advice and support for children, the disabled and the elderly.

They operate the child immunisation and well baby clinics with the doctors to assess and ensure a child's development and good health during the early years.

They can be contacted on 01253 657515.

Community Midwives work with the doctors to provide antenatal, delivery and postnatal care for mother and baby.

Community Psychiatric Nurses are available to help patients cope with stress, mental illness and relationship problems. The doctors will refer patients to a CPN if appropriate.
