How long is the form? Will it take me a long time?
The form asks for your symptoms, the length of time these have been present or changed, how you would like the surgery to assist you, and how we can contact you once we have reviewed your request.
I do not have a computer or smartphone. How can I fill out a form?
A friend, relative, or carer can complete this form on your behalf. If this is not available to you, or you have communication needs which prevent this, then our reception staff will assist in completing this over the telephone for you. The form will still be completed, and your request will then go with the other patient requests we receive.
Can a friend, relative, or carer do the form for me?
Yes. On the form, there is a box where we ask you if the form is being completed by somebody else. Please note that we will only be able to reply to yourself regarding your care as the patient unless there is confirmed consent on your medical record.
Here are some of the benefits of the new platform:
- Easy and simple for patients to use.
- No lengthy triage questions.
- Allow patients to track their request.
- Patients can be sent a link to the most appropriate appointment.
- Options to self-refer to local healthcare services
- Accessible via NHS app and NHS website
- No need to create login if you do not want to
Do I need to download anything or have a password?
No. If you do not want to download anything, you do not need to download any application or have a username and password to use this form.
The forms are also accessible via NHS app or via NHS website , if you have this set up.
What times of day is the form available?
The form will be available for completion from 8am to 5.30pm Monday to Friday. This is to allow our clinical team to ensure we can review and triage appropriately each day. If you have a routine request after this time, you will need to wait until 8am the following day and complete the request.
If you are requiring urgent medical assistance or have a life-threatening emergency, you will still need to contact the emergency services or visit the hospital - Find urgent and emergency care services - NHS (www.nhs.uk)
