Clayton Medical Centre - Doctors surgery opening times and what to do when we are closed

Noticeboard

Coronavirus (COVID-19) is still with us.

Please ensure you bring a face covering (mask or scarf to cover both your nose and mouth) if you are asked to attend by the GP or nurse. We do not have enough stock available to give out surgical masks to every patient as well as protecting staff.

We can all help control the virus if we stay alert. This means we all must all:

# stay at home as much as possible

# work from home if you can

# limit contact with other people

# keep your distance if you go out or at work (2 metres apart where possible)

# wash your hands regularly

# do not leave home if you or anyone in your household has symptoms.

YOU must let us know if you have any symptoms suggestive of coronavirus.

If you do not tell us or attempt to hide symptoms from us we are ALL at risk of becoming unwell.

If staff become unwell the surgery may have to close.

Help is available by telephone or video call and most routine face to face tests or treatments can wait until your symptoms have gone away.

Stay at home and protect the NHS and other members of the public.

Please do not to a GP, Pharmacy or hospital if you have a high temperature of 37.8 or above or a new continuous cough or loss of taste or loss of smell.

Please go online to 111.nhs.uk/covid-19. Patient should only call 111 if they do not have internet access.

Please use our website or online access to order repeat medication. We are sorry for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience.

Opening Times

Our staff are available by telephone between the times below.

Due to the current Worldwide Public Health Emergency we are working behind closed doors.

DO NOT attend the surgery unless a doctor or nurse has asked you to come to a face to face appointment.

If you are asked to attend an appointment by a Doctor or Nurse, YOU must let us know if you have any symptoms suggestive of COVID-19 virus. These are predominantly a cough, temperature, and/or fatigue.

If you do not tell us or attempt to hide symptoms from us we are ALL at risk of becoming ill. If a significant number of staff become ill the surgery may close. This is a remote but possible scenario.

Please, please stay away, help is available by telephone or video and most routine face to face tests or treatments can wait until your symptoms have gone away. Stay at home and protect the NHS and other members of the public too.
