Home Visits

Home Visits are provided only for patients who are too unwell to attend surgery. If you feel you need a visit please try to call before 11:00 am. Visits normally take place from 10am onwards.

A doctor or nurse may phone you back as it may be that your problem can be dealt with by telephone advice, or that it would be more appropriate to send a nurse, or indeed arrange a hospital attendance.

House visits are only available for patients who are housebound because of illness or disability.

Please remember that several patients can be seen in the practice in the time that it takes to make one home visit. There are also better facilities for examining and treating patients at the Health Centre.
