NEW Appointment Booking System
As part of our commitment to
increasing patient access to our services we are piloting a new and improved 24
hour online appointment booking system. This system will allow online access to
appointments for all our GPs. However, all nurse appointments e.g. blood
tests, blood pressures, diabetic reviews, will need to be made via the
telephone.
After initial registration,
this new system will allow patients to book, cancel or check appointments on the
Web, whatever time of day, and send you immediate confirmation of the booking,
as you will automatically be added to the appointment list. Book on the day
appointments will only be available from 8:00am on that day, but pre-bookable
appointments will be available as normal up to two weeks in advance.
Getting Started
First of all you must register to use the internet appointment booking facility.
Ask the receptionist, or
e-mail, for a registration form, which provides the information you
need to register to use the internet facility. This will be sent to you by post.
Once the registration process is complete, you can log on to the appointments
systems using your individual patient number and password, and will be able to
view appointments you have already made, cancel them if necessary, and book an
appointment with your doctor after checking the times available.
Once you’ve booked an appointment online, you will receive confirmation
immediately. There is no need to re-confirm by e-mail or telephone – just arrive
promptly on the day!
Security
You may wonder why you have to register to book. The reason is that this system
provides added security which we hope will enable us in the future to provide
additional on-line services such as the ability to review useful medical records
such as vaccinations, treatments or medication, repeat prescription ordering,
making address changes, and more.
Only you can see the personal information you enter. The web site is
administered at a remote high-security site managed by EMIS, not at the
practice, so there is no possibility of unauthorised access.
