We want to reassure patients that following the Government’s advice for England to go in to lockdown we will still be open and available to help you with your health queries and problems and prescriptions.  We are working hard to have more call handlers on the phones, but please don’t forget you can access our services through Engage Consult, www.lhmp.co.uk, click on Engage Consult

We will continue to follow government guidance so all appointments with our doctors will continue to be telephone first and you will only be asked to come to the Practice if your doctor needs to see you.  This keeps you and us safe and follows NHS England Guidance to minimise contact.

The practice is pleased to announce we have created additional appointment availability for patients who have an urgent medical need TO BE SEEN ON THE DAY – these appointments can be booked by contacting us on the telephone, or in person.

The additional capacity has been created to help the WIDER NHS COMMUNITY WHO ARE UNDER PRESSURE TO KEEP PATIENTS OUT OF A+E/ OUT OF HOSPITAL, and will be available up to the end of MARCH 2018 ONLY.

In the mornings when these ADDITIONAL APPOINTMENTS HAVE ALL BEEN BOOKED, patients will be offered to attend our Urgent Care Clinic, where we provide a sit and wait service for all patients who have an urgent need to be seen that day.

PLEASE REMEMBER – THE ADDITIONAL URGENT APPOINTMENTS ARE ONLY BOOKABLE ON THE DAY AND ARE FOR GENUINE MEDICAL EMERGENCIES ONLY

From the 1st April 2015, all practices are required to inform all patients of their named accountable GP. This is part of the GMS contract change for 2015 – 2016 that was agreed between BMA’s General Practitioners Committee and NHS Employers. This means that practices will need to ensure that each patient on their practice list is assigned a named, accountable GP.

Latham House has always operated a personal list system and most patients are already aware of their named GP. We will however, provide this information on repeat prescriptions in the top right hand corner and will advise patients when they contact us or attend for appointments when requested.

New patients will be informed of who their accountable GP is on registration.Patients who wish to change their accountable doctor may choose from the list of doctors whose lists are open each month.
