New Patient Registration

REGISTRATIONS

We are now inviting new patients to register with us at Slade Green Medical Centre and Colyers lane.  You can collect your registration forms from either surgery or download via the link below.

We can offer :-

• Free Parking
• Female Doctors
• Extended Hours for Doctors Appointments
• Extended Hours for Nurses Appointments
• Friendly receptionist and staff
• a clean and organised reception area.

...........and most importantly, we listen, care and support our community

Firstly to register as a patient at this practice you need to ensure that you live within our practice boundary.

If you live within our boundary and would like to continue registration with us, you will need to:

• Complete a form called a GMS1, providing details such as your name, date of birth, NHS number (if you know it), other information such as the name and address of your previous GP and your views on organ donation
• Provide ID/residence documentation to verify that you live within our practice boundary

Please note:

Can you please ensure that you provide the following if you are able:

• 2 x utility bills (dated within the last three months)
• NHS number
• For children a full birth certificate and a record of a childhood immunisations undertaken.

We are proud to be a safe surgery for everyone in our community, and pledge to ensure that everyone in our community receives the quality healthcare they are entitled to.

In partnership with Doctors of the World UK, we will ensure that our practice offers a welcoming space for everyone who seeks to use our services. We will ensure that a lack of identification, proof of address, or immigration status do not prevent patient registration.

As a member of the Safe Surgeries community, we will endeavour to support other Safe Surgeries and the development of the network.

Don’t have documents? Don’t worry, view the Safe Surgeries Documents poster for more information. For more information on what it means to be a Safe Surgery, please view the Safe Surgeries Welcome poster.

If you wish to register, please speak to a member of staff who can help and support you with the process of registration. You can learn more at Doctors of the World UK

Guide to GP Services

The Royal College of General Practitioners has produced a useful guide for patients about the services on offer at GP Surgeries and how to access them.  You can download the guide below.

A Patient Guide to GP Services

These fact sheets have been written to explain the role of UK health services, the National Health Service (NHS), to newly-arrived individuals seeking asylum. They cover issues such as the role of GPs, their function as gatekeepers to the health services, how to register and how to access emergency services.

Special care has been taken to ensure that information is given in clear language, and the content and style has been tested with user groups. Open the leaflets in one of the following languages

Temporary Registration

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.

You can be registered as a temporary patient from 16 days to three months. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.

To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.
