IMPORTANT INFORMATION

PLEASE READ BEFORE COMPLETION

Dear Sir or Madam

The registration process is a formal one. Your registration will not be completed unless all information is provided. It will take about 7 working days for the registration process to take place. During this time, you will still be registered with your previous GP and will be able to access a GP appointment and any medication. However, an emergency appointment will be offered if necessary.

To help staff with the process and to ensure there are no delays, I should be grateful if you would:-

- write clearly;

- ensure all sections of the forms are completed;

- provide all necessary documentation;

- return your documentation at a quiet time ie mornings after 9.30 and avoid lunchtimes where possible.

If you are unsure of any information such as your NHS Number (10 digit number) please contact your previous GP or write to Cheshire Health Authority, Patient Services, 1829 Building, Countess of Chester Health Park, Liverpool Road, Cheshire, CH2 1HJ or NHS Stockport, 8th floor Regent House, Heaton Lane, Stockport, SK4 1BS.

The Practice shares information through the Local care record, National Summary care record, also the Health and Social Care Information Centre. If you would like more information regarding this or wish to opt out of any of the above please ask reception for the relevant forms.

The practice offers a text reminder service for appointments. Any mobile phone numbers given will be used by the surgery to send out appointment reminders. If you do not wish to receive reminders please let the surgery know.

Please also note that we cannot accept patients from outside our practice area.

As a practice we have zero tolerance to rude, aggressive behaviour towards any members of staff or other patients.

Yours faithfully
