      1. We will treat you with respect and in return, you should treat the practice team respectfully.

      1. We will not tolerate verbal or physical abuse and this may result in you being asked to register at another practice.

       

      1. We listen and respond to our patients’ complaints and suggestions.

  • The surgery reserves the right to remove from their list any patient who acts in an aggressive or violent manner.
  • Violence includes actual or threatened physical violence or verbal abuse leading to a fear for a person’s safety.

Your Data

Freedom Of Information Act

As a patient you have the right to have access to your medical records, subject to any limitations in the law, and know that those working for the NHS are under a legal duty to keep their records confidential.

ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION OF PATIENT DATA PROTOCOL
GP to GP Record Transfers
NHS Wales require practices to utilise the GP2GP facility for the transfer of patient records between practices, when a patient registers or de-registers (not for temporary registration).
It is very important that you are registered with a doctor at all times. If you leave your GP and register with a new GP, your medical records will be removed from your previous doctor and forwarded on to your new GP via NHS Wales. It can take your paper records up to two weeks to reach your new surgery.
With GP to GP, your electronic record is transferred to your new practice much sooner.
The Partners confirm that GP to GP transfers are already active and we send and receive patient records via this system.

 

Complaints & Suggestions

Things go wrong even in the best run organisations.  We hope there will not be many complaints, but if you feel something is going wrong, or could be done better, we want to know.  In our experience most problems between medical staff and their patients are due to poor communication.  If you have a problem, please write to our Practice Manager, Debbie Smithson.

Patients wishing to raise a concern in relation to any aspect of their care should contact Debbie Smithson.  The senior partner would normally deal with concerns of a clinical nature.  The practice manager will address concerns relating to administrative issues.  The practice follows local and national guidelines on dealing with concerns.

A suggestion box is available in the waiting room for patients to post their comments or ideas in.  Our practice manager welcomes your comments for improvement and is glad to hear from the patients’ perspective.  These suggestions will be discussed with all the staff.

Raising a Concern about NHS Services in Wales

From 1 April 2011, the way in which NHS organisations’ in Wales deal with complaints, claims and incidents (collectively known as `concerns’) is changing. These new arrangements will be called “Putting Things Right” and will require a different approach to dealing with concerns.  Practice staff are trained to give support and encourage the sorting out of problems as they arise and being open if something has gone wrong.
