We do offer Home visits to those patients that are unable to attend the Surgery.
If a home visit is required please let the Surgery know as we need to plan this into the GP’s day.
The clinical staff member will make contact with the patient / family / carer whom has requested the visit. Depending on the reason for the visit the GP would attend or they will refer to the following services.
JET – Joint Emergency Team – This team will go out, see a patient and give a full clinical exam and review and liaise with the GP of the findings. JET sometimes can visit patients quicker than a GP and can help with unwanted hospital admissions
Home Visiting Team – We refer into the service and they will attend and complete Bloods, Blood Pressure Checks, Diabetic reviews
District Nurses – Normally this would be for services GP are not able to assist with i.e. Catheters blocked, inserts etc.
