How to Request a Home Visit

Completely housebound patients and those too ill to attend surgery can request a home visit

If possible please try to telephone before 11:30am if you require a home visit.

A doctor or nurse may phone you back as it may be that your problem can be dealt with by telephone advice, or that it would be more appropriate to send a nurse, or indeed arrange a hospital attendance.

Please remember that several patients can be seen in the practice in the time that it takes to make one home visit. There are also better facilities for examining and treating patients at the Medical Centre, in addition to having access to your complete medical record.
