✨ Finding Support and Joy in the New Year ✨

As the festive season winds down and we look ahead to 2026, we want to remind our patients and their families about the incredible support available locally for those living with dementia. πŸ’š

Beyond Dementia (formerly Alzheimer's Support) runs over 30 friendly community groups across Wiltshire, designed to enhance wellbeing, keep minds and bodies active, and build friendships! 🀝

These groups offer a vital chance for connection, stimulation, and fun for people living with dementia, as well as providing essential support and a break for their family carers. πŸ«‚

They offer a fantastic variety of activities, including:
🎢 Music for the Mind (Singing groups)
🎨 Art Groups & Creative Activities
β˜• Memory CafΓ©s (for a cuppa and a chat)
πŸ’ͺ Movement for the Mind (Gentle exercise groups)
🌳 Outdoors groups and Practical Memory Sheds

Whether you are seeking companionship for a loved one, or simply need a safe space to meet other family carers, there is a group for you.

Merry Christmas from everyone at The Orchard Partnership! πŸŽ„πŸŽ We hope you are having a wonderful, happy, and healthy Christmas Day! πŸŽ…βœ¨

Just a quick reminder that as it is Christmas Day, our practices are closed today and will also be closed tomorrow on Boxing Day and New Year’s Day (the bank holidays). πŸš«πŸ—“οΈ

If you need medical advice or care over the holiday period, here is how you can get the help you need:

🚨 Life-threatening emergency? Always call 999 immediately.
πŸ“ž Urgent health need but not an emergency? Call NHS 111 or visit 111.nhs.uk for advice. They can direct you to the right local service.
➑️ πŸ“± Minor advice or symptom checking? You can use the NHS App for information and guidance from the comfort of your home. 🏑

We wish you all the very best for the holidays! Stay safe and well! ❀️

And finally, a festive joke for a little cheer: Why was the doctor grumpy on Christmas Day? Because he had no patients! πŸ˜‰πŸ€ͺπŸ˜†

Can't see your repeat medication online? πŸ§πŸ’»

We want to help make ordering your prescriptions through SystmConnect as smooth as possible. We know it can be confusing if a medication you normally take isn't appearing on your list when you log in. πŸ“‹πŸ€”

The most common reason for this is that the medication is not yet due according to your repeat medication template. ⏳ The system is designed to help ensure medicines are taken at the correct intervals for your safety. βœ…

However, we understand that life happens! 🌟 If you have a legitimate need for your medication earlier than usualβ€”for example, if you are going away on holiday βœˆοΈβ€”you can still request it.

What to do:

* πŸ”‘ Log in to SystmConnect as usual.
* ✍️ If the item isn't on your list, you can manually input the request online.
* πŸ“ Simply enter the details of the medication you need and the reason for the early request.

While your medications should ideally be synced so they are all due at the same time πŸ”„, we know this isn't always the case. If you find that you are regularly running out of certain items at different times, it might be worth booking a non-urgent (routine) appointment with a doctor. πŸ‘¨β€βš•οΈπŸ‘©β€βš•οΈ They can review your medication template to make sure you can re-order the right medication at the right time in the future. πŸ—“οΈ

🚨 Important Update: NHS Industrial Action 17th – 22nd December 🚨

The Orchard Partnership wants to keep all our patients informed about the current industrial action by Resident Doctors (formerly known as junior doctors). 🩺

The strike is scheduled to take place from today until 06:59 on Monday 22nd December. πŸ—“οΈ

What this means for you:

πŸ₯ Salisbury District Hospital: The hospital remains very busy with winter pressures and flu. During the strike, they will operate a "near Bank Holiday" level of service. However, essential services like the Emergency Department (A&E), Maternity, and Critical Care will remain open. πŸš‘

πŸ“… Appointments: If you have a hospital appointment or a procedure scheduled during this time, please attend as planned unless the hospital contacts you directly to reschedule. πŸ“ž

🩺 Our Surgery: We are open as usual! GP practices are not on strike, and you should continue to attend your appointments with us unless told otherwise. 🌳

How you can help:

To ensure those with life-threatening emergencies get the care they need, please choose the right service for your needs:

βœ… NHS 111: For urgent medical advice that isn't an emergency, visit 111.nhs.uk or call 111. They can direct you to the best place for care. ☎️
βœ… Pharmacies: Your local pharmacist can help with minor illnesses, advice, and over-the-counter medicines. πŸ’Š
βœ… Self-Care: Many winter bugs like coughs and colds can be managed safely at home with rest and fluids. β˜•
🚨 A&E: Please only attend A&E or call 999 for genuine life-threatening emergencies (e.g., chest pain, difficulty breathing, or serious injury). πŸ†˜

We appreciate your patience and kindness toward all NHS staff during this challenging week. By choosing the right service, you are helping us look after the whole community! πŸ’šβœ¨
