Out of hours services
“Through our partnership with Brighton and Hove Federation, patients now have access to additional appointments from 6:30-8pm on weekdays, 9am-5pm on Saturdays and 9am-4pm on Sundays, they are held at various sites across Brighton and Hove, to give more appointment capacity and greater flexibility for people. Appointments may not be at your own practice or with your own GP.
These include remote and face to face GP appointments as well as appointments with a nurse, pharmacist or health care assistant. Specialist clinics are also being available (e.g. menopause and women’s health).
This service is for new, recent medical conditions such as:
- Minor illness symptoms
- A new minor injury (not requiring urgent medical attention)
- A problem that can easily be resolved by prescribing a short course of medication (e.g. an infection); or
- Flare up of an existing condition that doesn’t require a patient’s usual GP
This service is not for:
- Any problem that would better be seen by a Practice GP with knowledge of the patient and the condition.
- Issuing a repeat prescription.
- Complex or urgent mental health needs.
- Travel medication.
- Requests for controlled drugs (such as opiates/benzodiazepines).
Please refer to the Federations website https://www.brightonandhovefed.co.uk/enhanced-access for updates. Access to these clinics is by contacting the surgery in the normal way.
The Brighton Station Health Centre Aspect House, 84-87 Queens Road, Brighton, BN1 3XE is open from 8am to 8pm every day.
