If you wish to request a home visit please telephone the surgery before 11.00 am, so that we can plan our day as effectively as possible. Please remember that house calls are primarily for those who are housebound due to severe chronic illness or cancer.  Requests made after 11.00 am will be triaged and a visit may be arranged for the following day. 

Disabled Access

Access to the surgery by disabled persons can be gained using the ramp and handrail provided at the front entrance. A waiting room and 7 of the surgeries are on the ground floor. High Pastures also provides toilet facilities for the disabled.

Removal of Patients

Please note: the Practice retains the right to remove patients who frequently do not attend for appointments. The Practice also reserve the right to remove violent or abusive patients from its list and will do so in writing in line with NHS and South Sefton Primary Care Trust Policy.

DNA  

Due to an increase in the number of wasted appointments through patient's failing to attend without informing the surgery it has become necessary to implement the following policy:

If you repeatedly fail to attend appointments you may be removed from the practice list and required to find an alternative GP surgery.

If you cannot attend your appointments for any reason please let us know as soon as possible.

Publication of GP Net Earnings

All GP practices are required to declare the mean earnings for GPs working to deliver NHS services to patients at each practice.

This is the average pay for the 1 full-time GP and 4 part-time GPs who worked in the practice for more than 6 months during that year.

 

PLEASE REMEMBER TO CANCEL YOUR APPOINTMENT IF NO LONGER REQUIRED.
