The District Nursing Team work closely with the rest of the
team, operating out of the same building and have full access
to our record system. They are involved in the care of patients
who are housebound and unable to attend the surgery, but need
nursing input in the community. The majority of their workload
is the elderly, the terminally ill and patients who have
recently been discharged from hospital. If you feel that you
might need their involvement please ring them direct or speak
to your GP.

Their responsibility is to ensure that all patients have
equitable access to our resources and the smooth running of our
organisation. Looking after so many patients and running many
clinics simultaneously is often stressful and we appreciate
your consideration. In order to assist you quickly and
appropriately they may have to ask for more details about your
condition. Please let them know if you change your name,
address, telephone number etc in order that our records for you
and other members of your family are up to date. Our
receptionists are bound by the same rules of patient
confidentiality as the doctors and nurses.
