RECRUITMENT OF ANOTHER HEALTH CARE ASSISTANT
We would like to welcome Mary Sutton who is our new Health Care Assistant (HCA). We hope she will be very happy in her new post. 

MEDICAL STUDENTS
As a training practice we receive medical students during certain periods of the year.  Their time spent with us gives the students a taste of what it is like in general practice and helps them decide which path they would like to take in the future within the medical profession.

A medical student will be with the practice from the 15 August to the 9 September and from the 5 December to the 13 January 2011.

SMS TEXT MESSAGING
With the advancement of new technology within the Practice, we are now able to contact patients by text message to your mobile phone.  If you would like us to use this method of communication for you, please inform the receptionist of your mobile number.  Rest assured, we will not be sending any specific confidential information via text, it will merely be a request for you to telephone the surgery or to make an appointment.  There is no facility for you to reply.

VACCINATIONS – NOTICE TO PATIENTS
Please be aware that there will be a charge for Hep B vaccinations.

NEW BORN BABIES
We constantly come across parents bringing in their new born babies for appointments, health checks and immunisations before they have been registered. 

It would be most appreciated if parents could register their baby as soon as possible after they are born so that if they need to see a doctor or attend for their 8 week baby check and immunisations, we are able to enter their medical information straight onto the notes.

CHLAMYDIA SCREENING
We are inviting teenagers aged between 15 and 24 years to come into surgery for a Chlamydia screening test.  This is part of a confidential national screening programme.

It is important that young people are screened for this sexually transmitted infection.  There are often no symptoms of this, therefore, it is important that young people are screened as, if left untreated, it could lead to infertility.

DONATION
We would like to convey our sincere thanks for the donation received from Mrs Sandra Needham in memory of her late husband, Leonard.

TRAVEL VACCINATIONS – NOTICE TO PATIENTS
There will also be a charge for Meningitis ACWY.

The exact fees for these vaccinations will be calculated shortly and a notice will be displayed in the waiting room for information.  Please note payment will be required before vaccinations are carried out.

Remember! 
Book in good time before your holiday if you require any vaccinations. Please make an appointment with the nurse to discuss your requirements.

LATE APPOINTMENTS

If you are late for an appointment, it will depend on how late the doctor or nurse is running to determine whether you will be seen.  If there is not enough time available, we will arrange another appointment for you to come back.  You can usually expect to wait until the end of surgery or occasionally, you may be seen in between other patients if time allows.

CONDUCT IN THE WAITING ROOM

If your children accompany you to an appointment or indeed have an appointment themselves, please would you ensure that your children behave in a reasonable manner whilst in the waiting room.  It is not very nice for poorly patients having to endure children running around and shouting in the waiting room and it would be much appreciated if you could keep your children under control and perhaps sit them down to a book or with a toy whilst they are here.

It is also very difficult for the receptionists as sometimes when the waiting room is noisy it is impossible to hear when they are on the telephone.
