Find out more about the NHS App
You may wish to access another person’s online account to order medication, book appointments etc on their behalf.
To request proxy access to another person’s online account a Proxy Access form must be completed at the surgery by both parties. Under 11s need not attend but anyone over the age of 11 is required to attend in person with their ID and completed form. For children under the age of 11 a birth certificate would be adequate and no further ID is necessary for them. Those that hold Lasting Power of Attorney do not need to bring along the patient giving the access but must supply a copy of the LPA, if we do not already hold it on record.
Medication Reviews
Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see a doctor, clinical pharmacist or practice nurse at least once a year to review these regular medications and notification should appear on your repeat slip.
Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.
Repeat Dispensing
If you, or someone you care for, use the same medicines regularly, you may be able to benefit from repeat dispensing from your pharmacist. This means you won't have to visit the surgery every time you need more medicines.
