Our Practice Nurses are trained to advise and counsel patients how to be healthy and remaining that way. A full description of the services they provide appears under CLINICS.

Healthcare assistants support practice nurses with their daily work and carry out tasks such as blood pressure measurement, new patient, general health checks and some vaccinaitons. They may act as a chaperone when a patient or doctor requests one. Our HCA’s are Debra and Claire

Our Practice Manager is involved in the day-to-day management of the practice and she will be happy to help you with any non-medical or administrative aspect of your health care.

The team consists of Anna (Medical Secretary) Elaine (Senior Administrator) Emma, Kelly, Michelle and Joanne.

Care navigation allows front line staff to provide patients with more information about local health and wellbeing services, both within and outside of primary care, in a safe, effective way. It means that patients will find it easier to get a GP appointment when they need one. When a patient contacts the practice, the care navigator will ask for a brief outline of the problem, this isn’t about being intrusive, it is aimed to allow the care navigator to identify the patient’s need and provide information about services in the practice, other NHS providers and the wider care and support sector. Where appropriate, they will direct the patient to these services. They also perform other important tasks such as issuing repeat prescriptions, prescription enquiries and dealing with financial claims. The team consists of Elaine (Reception Manager), Lorraine, Janet, Maria, Wajeeha and Alison.
