REGISTRATION TYPE

Permanent Patients
If you plan to be here for more than three months, you can register as a permanent patient.

• Children
  When registering children under the age of five, please bring their immunisation record to be uploaded on to their record to ensure they are up to date with all their vaccinations.
• Temporary Patients
  If you plan to live in the area for less than three months, please advise reception and you will be asked to complete a different form. For more information see  https://www.nhs.uk/common-health-questions/nhs-services-and-treatments/how-do-i-register-as-a-temporary-resident-with-a-gp/

Out Of Area Patients 

If you live outside of our boundary but wish to register, please contact our staff about becoming an 'Out of Area' patient as we may be able to register you and your family on this scheme.  'Out of area' registration is voluntary for GP practices and can only be considered if it is clinically appropriate and practical in your individual case and is subject to periodic review.

INSTRUCTIONS

1.  Complete the New Patient Registration Form.

2.  Please complete the New patient questionnaire for children as well as adults (just skip the fields which are not applicable to a child).
Please note that both the new patient registration and questionnaire must be completed and submitted for adults & children before your registration can be processed.

3.  Complete the Email and SMS consent form

4.  Register for the Online services - this will enable you to view aspects of your medical records after registering via NHS App or Patient Access.  

5.  When we have received your registration forms & questionnaire, we will contact you to confirm that your registration is being processed. We will then send you a text requesting a photo of a personal identity document (driving licence or passport). Once you send this to us, we will finalise your registration. 

• Forms and information about the registration process can also be obtained from a member of our patient services team. Call our reception desk to get in touch.
• Please note that you will be registering with the practice rather than an individual GP.
