CLOSURE REMINDER:

We are closed from 1pm on Tuesday 18th November so that our Surgery can join the TARGET training scheme.

📞 Anyone who needs advice about a health problem that cannot wait until the surgery is open again should telephone 111 or visit the NHS 111 website – 111.nhs.uk. In an emergency, please call 999.

What is TARGET?
TARGET stands for Time for Audit Research Governance Education and Training and all of these things are important in ensuring that surgery staff can do their jobs as effectively as possible.
By taking part in a half day TARGET session our Primary Care Workforce can:
✅Learn new skills which they can then use back in the surgery
✅Learn about new treatments and approaches to care
✅Work more closely with the hospitals and other care providers to make your care work more effectively
✅Share their thoughts and ideas with each other to improve services.

We are extremely disappointed with the behaviour from one of our patients today, who thought it was a good idea to clog the sink with toilet paper and put on the taps to flood the toilets.

By doing this not only did it waste water and extra cleaning equipment, you also used up valuable time from our Infection control nurse and the reception team so they could clean this up.

Unfortunately, we have had to close the female patient toilets for the rest of the day to allow the flooring to dry fully.

Luckily this was noticed before it had gotten any worse and caused a patient to slip.
