Home Visits

Home visits are only available for the housebound and seriously ill. 

We expect children to be brought to the surgery.

Requests for a home visit should be made before 10am and those non-urgent ones received later than this will be put forward to the next day.

Please give the care navigators as much information as possible to help the doctor prioritise your need.

We can see far more patients in surgery than by doing house calls and you will usually be seen more quickly.

You can be visited at home by a community nurse if you are referred by your GP. You should also be visited at home by a health visitor if you have recently had a baby or if you are newly registered with a GP and have a child under five years.

Standard 2 - Practices have the appropriate telephony systems in place to support the needs of people avoiding the need to call back multiple times and will check that they are handling calls in this way.

Standard 3 - People receive bilingual information on local and emergency services when contacting a practice.

Standard 4 - People are able to access information on how to get help and advice.

Standard 5 - People receive the right care at the right time in a joined up way which is based on their needs.

Standard 6 - People can use a range of options to contact their GP practice.

Standard 7 - People are able to email a practice to request a non-urgent consultation or a call back.

Standard 8 - Practices understand the needs of people within their practice and use this information to anticipate the demand on its services.
