  • Take on 24 hour responsibility for the patient or have to change their working hours
  • Imply personal availability for the GP’s throughout the working week
  • Be the only clinician who provides care to that patient
  • There is no condition within the requirement for the patient to see their names GP when they book an appointment with the practice
  • Patients are entitled to choose to see any GP or nurse in the practice in line with current arrangement

Please speak to Reception if you would like more information.
