What's happening at SSHC......

Appointments - making the most out of your consultations:

• Our standard appointments are 15 minutes

• Book a double appointment if you have lots to discuss

• Follow-up consultations incur a standard appointment fee (no discount)

• Please turn off your cellphone during your consultation time

• Prioritize the things you wish to discuss

• Generally, the GP can cover 1-2 things during your 15 min appointment time

• Unexpected urgent problems or emergencies affecting other patients will occur and may delay the time you see you GP.  If you think you have been waiting too long please tell our Receptionists.

​

Eloise Yorke, one of our practices nurses that worked her a few years ago, is returning as a Nurse Practitioner and will take over from Rachael starting Monday 15th December.  Eloise will be working Mondays and Tuesdays.  All of Rachael's patients will transfer to Eloise, however, if you need to be seen on a day that Eloise does not work, you can still see Dr Geoffrey Carden.

 

PHONE PROMPTS have changed.  We are trying to keep it as simple as possible.  All prescription requests ONLY are option 3.  All other requests (including nurse inquiries) are to come through reception which is option 1.
