To reduce the risk of patients presenting with suspected symptoms of covid-19 we have suspended online bookings and patients should contact the practice for all appointments to enable us to triage and advise accordingly.
Patients who have returned from these specific areas listed below, should use the 111 online coronavirus service and self-isolate even if not having any symptoms:
Category 1: Travellers should self-isolate, even if asymptomatic, and use the 111 online coronavirus service to find out what to do next. They should go home or to their destination and then self isolate.
Category 2: Travellers do not need to undertake any special measures, but if they develop symptoms they should self-isolate and use the 111 online coronavirus service
