CAN WE PLEASE REMIND ALL PATIENTS THAT ANTIBIOTICS WILL NOT WORK WITH COLDS AND SORE THROATS. OVER THE COUNTER MEDICINES AND PARACETAMOL YOU CAN GET FROM YOUR LOCAL PHARMACIST AND GENERALLY THE SYMPTOMS WILL PASS OVER A PERIOD OF TIME.
SUCH AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE. CERVICAL SMEARS SAVE LIVES.
CRIMOND MEDICAL CENTRE HAS SEVERAL PEOPLE EACH WEEK WHO DO NOT TURN UP FOR APPOINTMENTS, WHICH IS UNFAIR ON THE REST OF THE PATIENTS WHO ARE THEN DELAYED FROM SEEING A DOCTOR OR A NURSE. FROM 1ST JANUARY 2018 WE ARE GOING TO TAKE A FIRMER STANCE ON THIS PROBLEM. LETTERS WILL NOW BE SENT TO PATIENTS WHO DO NOT ATTEND AN APPOINTMENT, WITH SERIAL OFFENDERS HAVING THE POSSIBILITY OF BEING REMOVED FROM OUR PRACTICE LIST AND THEN HAVING TO FIND ANOTHER MEDICAL CENTRE. TO AVOID THIS FROM HAPPENING WE ASK ALL PATIENTS WHO CANNOT ATTEND AN APPOINTMENT TO PHONE THE MEDICAL CENTRE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO CANCEL ANY APPOINTMENTS YOU CANNOT MAKE. THIS INCLUDES THOSE PATIENTS WHO ARE SENT LETTER INVITES TO ATTEND FOR CHRONIC DISEASE MONITORING. AS STATED ABOVE FAILURE TO ATTEND ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS COULD RESULT IN YOU BEING REMOVED FROM OUR LIST!
