Temporary Patient Registrations

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 for up 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.

Named Accountable GP

Since 1 April 2015, practices have been required under the GMS contract to allocate a named accountable GP to all patients.

The named accountable GP will take lead responsibility for the coordination of all services required under the contract and ensure they are delivered to each of their patients where required (based on the clinical judgement of the named accountable GP).

Dr SS Gill is the named GP for all registered patients, however you may see any available GP. 

How can I find out who my named accountable GP is?

  • If you have a repeat prescription; the name of your Accountable GP will be printed on the right hand page of the prescription.
  • If you receive a letter from the practice we will include the name of your Accountable GP at the top of the letter.
  • Ask at reception the next time you visit

Please note: This will not affect your care or treatment and you may continue to see any GP at the practice.
