THE RESULTS OF THE PATIENT OPINION SURVEY CONDUCTED RECENTLY GAVE FAVOURABLE RESULTS, AND INDICATED THAT THE GREAT MAJORITY OF PATIENTS WERE VERY HAPPY WITH THE SERVICES PROVIDED.
RECENT GOVERMENT RULINGS HAVE PROMPTED THE SETTING UP OF SURGERIES OUTSIDE OF OUR NORMAL WORKING HOURS. WE HAVE CALLED THESE SURGERIES 'COMMUTER CLINICS' AS THEY ARE AIMED AT PEOPLE WHO WORK AND UNABLE TO ATTEND DURING OUR USUAL WORKING HOURS.
THE COMMUTER CLINICS WILL COMPRISE PRE-BOOKED APPOINTMENTS ONLY AND WILL NOT BE FOR EMERGENCIES. THE LATTER WILL CONTINUE TO BE COVERED BY THE EXISTING OUT-OF-HOURS SERVICE. THERE WILL BE ONE DOCTOR ON DUTY, AND NO NURSING STAFF.
COMMUTER CLINICS WILL BE HELD ON THE 1st and 3rd WEDNESDAY EVENING OF THE MONTH AND ON THE 2nd and 4th SATURDAY MORNING.THE SURGERY PHONE LINES WILL NOT BE OPEN DURING COMMUTER CLINICS SO ALL APPOINTMENTS MUSTR BE MADE OR CANCELLED DURING NORMAL WORKING HOURS.
