Paramedics can work in different areas of the NHS but all share a core qualification in emergency care.

A Paramedic in a GP surgery is highly trained in assessing and managing many of the problems that patients need urgent help with. So, you may be referred to one of our Paramedics if you have a minor injury, acute illness or worsening symptoms of an existing condition.

Here at our practice, our Paramedics are all members of a wider multidisciplinary healthcare team, working alongside your GP.

It will always be your choice who you see. But being referred to another member of our team means you’ll still be cared for by someone with the right expertise for your condition, and usually quicker than waiting to see a GP!

To find out more about your surgery team, visit the ‘About Us’ page of our website.

Regular exercise plays a vital role in maintaining both physical and mental health, and it does not have to mean spending hours in the gym. Being active can help reduce the risk of long-term conditions, improve mood and boost energy levels, while also supporting independence as we age.

Examples of regular exercise include:
🚴‍♂️ Brisk walking or cycling to improve heart health
💪 Strength exercises like carrying shopping or resistance training to build muscle
🧘‍♀️Balance and flexibility activities such as yoga or stretching to reduce falls and stiffness
💙 Low-impact activities like swimming or chair-based exercises, especially later in life

Staying active in ways you enjoy makes it easier to keep exercise as part of everyday life.

Sinusitis can cause uncomfortable symptoms such as facial pain or pressure, a blocked or runny nose, headaches and reduced sense of smell. While many cases improve on their own, treatments like pain relief, nasal sprays, steam inhalation and self-care can help ease symptoms, and medical advice may be needed if symptoms last longer or worsen. Knowing the signs and treatment options can help you manage sinusitis more effectively and understand when to seek help. 🤧💧🩺✨
