Covid-19 - Visiting the practice

Face coverings and masks

In line with current Government guidance patients are required to wear a face covering in all healthcare settings.

Face coverings and face masks are additional measures to keep people safe while in the practice, however social distancing and good hand hygiene practices are still the most important ways to keep you and those around you safe.

With that in mind, we would ask that you do the following:

  • wear a face covering or mask when visiting the practice
  • keep 2 metres between you and other people where possible
  • regularly wash and/or sanitise your hands.

Government guidance on the use of face coverings generally is available on the Government website

Arriving for your appointment

We have very limited capacity in our waiting room so please be prepared to wait outside or in your car if you have driven here. Patients will be asked to enter the surgery alone wherever possible to reduce the number of people in the building. 

Please use the hand sanitiser in reception when you enter the building, and again before you leave.

Please note that our toilets should only be used if absolutely necessary and again you should sanitise your hands before and after use.
