Total triage: what changed and how to use it well
The practice’s triage notices explain that all appointment requests and clinical queries should start through an online consultation form, or by phone support if the patient cannot do it online. Requests are assessed based on clinical need, not just who called first.

Repeat prescriptions: NHS App, online form or prescription drop-in box
The official prescription page says you cannot order repeat prescriptions by phone for patient safety. Use NHS App/NHS account, the online repeat prescription form, or drop a repeat prescription slip at the surgery.

Pharmacy advice
Local pharmacies can advise on medicine use, side effects, disposal of old medicines and common minor illnesses.
| Prescription issue | Official route | Practical tip |
|---|---|---|
| Routine repeat medicine | NHS App/NHS account, online form or prescription slip/drop-in box. | Order before you run out and check nominated pharmacy. |
| Can I order by phone? | No. The practice says repeat prescriptions cannot be ordered by phone. | Phone only for an appropriate prescription query, not routine ordering. |
| Medication review needed | Request review using online form or contact the surgery. | Arrange review if side effects occur or medicines feel wrong. |
| Nominated pharmacy | Online prescriptions can be sent electronically to your chosen pharmacy. | Confirm nomination before submitting. |
| Medicine question | Ask a local pharmacist first for many medicine-use questions. | For serious side effects or urgent symptoms, use NHS 111/999 route. |

Test results: NHS App, online form, phone after 3pm or in person
The official test-results page says you can view or ask for recent results online, use an online form, call after 3pm, or ask in person. Online form result requests receive a response within 5 working days.

Fit notes: 7-day rule, self-certification and hospital route
The official fit-note page explains that if you are off work sick for 7 days or less, you usually do not need a GP fit note. For more than 7 days, your employer will usually ask for one.
