Data Protection Policy

NATIONAL DATA  OPT OUT PROGRAMME

NHS Digital has developed a new system to support the national data opt-out which will give patients more control over how confidential patient information is used. The system will offer patients and the public the opportunity to make an informed choice about whether they wish their confidential patient information to be used just for their individual care and treatment or also used for research and planning purposes.

Patients and the public who decide they do not want their confidential patient information used for planning and research purposes will be able to set their national data opt-out choice online.

For further opt-out information, please visit the NHS Digital site:

•           digital.nhs.uk/opt-out-programme

And if you would like to opt-out, you can follow the process using the link below:

•           www.nhs.uk/manage-your-choice

Our practice policy on this subject is available to review below:

Please note: Prescription Requests

The surgery no longer accepts repeat prescription requests over the usual telephone lines, as we need to keep these free for other, ever growing medical needs. All future prescriptions can be ordered on the 24 hour answer machine on 01457 835345, dropped in at reception or ordered on-line (please ask to register for this at reception or see below). We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Online Repeat Prescription Requests and Appointment Requests

If you would like to register to order repeat prescriptions or book appointments on line, please CLICK HERE for instructions on how to register for this service. Please note that if you already order your prescriptions on-line, you will now need to re-register as this is a new system with the addition of on-line appointment booking included. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

If you have already registered for the new system please click on the relevant button below to either Order your Repeats or Appointments.
