Patient Information Booklet

It can take some time for your medical records to arrive from your previous doctor’s surgery. We like to communicate by text message and email with patients where possible. We will
only contact you by text message and email if you are happy for us to do so. Please indicate your preference in our online form below.

If you have been issued with a repeat prescription by your previous doctor and wish to continue with this repeat you will need to make an appointment to arrange this with a doctor at our practice.

Summary Care Record (SCR)

The SCR is an electronic record of important patient information, created from GP medical records. It can be seen by authorised staff in other areas of the health and care system involved in that individuals direct care.

• current medication
• allergies and details of any previous bad reactions to medicines
• the name, address, date of birth and NHS number of the patient

Access to this information means that care in other settings is safer, reducing the risk of prescribing errors, and helps avoid delays to urgent care.

For further information about a Summary Care Record please visit the NHS Digital website.
