Nurse practitioners
Nurse practitioners are registered nurse prescribers who have completed additional training and as a result, are able to assess, diagnose, treat and manage illness and disease.
You may be offered an appointment with the nurse practitioner as an alternative to the doctor. For more information, please ask a member of the reception team.

Nurses
Practice nurses are qualified and registered nurses. They can help with health issues such as family planning, healthy living advice, blood pressure checks and dressings.
The practice nurses run clinics for long-term health conditions such as asthma or diabetes, carry out cervical smears and assist with minor surgery procedures.

Attached staff
We have a team of district nurses, a community matron, a midwife and a palliative care nurse, who work alongside the practice. We hold regular meetings and enjoy a close working relationship.
