I have tried [self-care/medicine]. I am worried because [reason]. Is this best for eConsult, GP, nurse, pharmacist, MSK practitioner, NHS 111 or 999?
eConsult: what it can do and why it may be closed
Brewood’s eConsult page may show that online requests are not being accepted at that time and asks patients to try again from 8am tomorrow. This is normal for many GP online forms and should not be treated as a broken page.
| eConsult point | Official meaning | Patient action |
|---|---|---|
| Online requests closed | The eConsult page may say “Your practice isn’t accepting online requests at this time.” | Try again from 8am, call the surgery if help is needed, use 111 if urgent, or call 999 for emergency symptoms. |
| What is eConsult? | An online form to check symptoms, get self-help, find other services or send a consultation to the GP practice. | Use for suitable medical/admin requests when open. |
| Who can use it? | Registered patients aged 16+ and parents/legal guardians of children over 6 months for selected conditions. | Use the correct patient details and consent. |
| How fast is response? | During office hours the practice aims to review and respond by phone, text or email the same day; admin may take up to 3 working days. | Keep phone nearby and check junk email. |
| Urgent problem? | The FAQ recommends contacting the surgery straight away, NHS 111, or 999 for extreme emergency. | Do not wait for online form if symptoms are unsafe. |

| Home visit? | eConsult says contact the surgery for home visit requests. | Phone as early as possible after 8am. |
Repeat prescriptions: Patient Access, NHS App, paper, phone or post
The official prescription page says the easiest ways to order repeat prescriptions are Patient Access and NHS account/NHS App. It also lists paper form, phone during opening hours and post, but says repeat prescription requests are not taken by email.
Patient Access
Use the GP online system to see repeat medicines and dosages, then choose the items you need.
NHS account / NHS App
Use the NHS website or NHS App to request repeat medicines where enabled.
Paper form or post
Bring the paper form when the surgery is open or post your request to the surgery.
No email requests
The official page says repeat prescription requests are not taken over email.
| Prescription issue | Official detail | Best action |
|---|---|---|
| Routine repeat medicine | Order through Patient Access, NHS account/NHS App, paper form, phone or post. | Use online where possible to reduce errors. |
| Email request | Not accepted for repeat prescriptions. | Do not send medicine requests to the email address. |
| Collection timing | Prescription can usually be collected from the pharmacy 3 working days after the practice receives the request. | Order before you are down to your last few doses. |
| Nominated pharmacy | You need to choose a pharmacy to collect from. | Change nomination in the app/website, at the practice or at a pharmacy. |
| Medicine question | Local pharmacists can answer medicine questions and advise on minor illnesses. | Use pharmacy for side effects, instructions and over-the-counter questions. |
| Medication review | Repeat prescriptions may need regular review. | If medicines are blocked or missing, ask the practice using the medication query route. |
| Old medicines | Take unused medicines to a pharmacy or bring them to the surgery; do not bin or flush them. | Return old inhalers and medicines safely. |
Test results: know when to ask and who owns the result
The official contact page summary says the practice will contact patients if test results show more tests or treatment are needed. Once a doctor has reviewed results, you can ask for results through the official route.
| Situation | Best route | Practical note |
|---|---|---|
| GP-ordered test | Wait for clinical review, then contact the practice if needed. | Ask what action is needed, not just “what is the number?” |
| Hospital or clinic ordered test | Contact the hospital/clinic that ordered it. | They should interpret their own investigation and explain next steps. |
| Normal result | Practice may not contact you if no further action is needed. | Check NHS App/record if available or ask reception after review. |
| Abnormal result | Practice should contact you if more tests or treatment are needed. | Keep phone number updated. |
| Someone else asking | Consent and confidentiality rules apply. | Arrange permission before a carer/family member phones. |
Sick notes / fit notes: avoid urgent slots for admin
The official contact page links to sick-note guidance. For most work absences, self-certification applies first; GP fit notes usually apply after more than 7 days off sick.
| Situation | Rule | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Off sick 7 days or less | You usually self-certify. | Use employer/GOV.UK self-certification route. |
| Off sick more than 7 days | Employer may ask for a fit note. | Use the official fit-note route, phone or visit surgery when open. |
| Hospital treatment | Hospital doctor should issue fit note for the recovery period. | Ask before discharge or clinic end. |
| Extension request | Give exact dates and reason. | Do not use emergency appointment route for routine fit-note admin. |
| Work deadline | Explain deadline and employer request. | Include job duties if “may be fit for work” advice is needed. |
Home visits: phone early if housebound
The appointment information says that if you are housebound and need an appointment, the practice will do a home visit, and it is helpful to phone as soon after 8am as possible.
| Home visit point | Patient action | Important note |
|---|---|---|
| When to call | Phone as soon after 8am as possible. | Earlier request helps the team plan safe visits. |
| Who qualifies | Patients who are housebound and need an appointment. | Transport difficulty alone may not mean home visit is appropriate. |
| What to explain | Symptoms, onset, worsening, mobility limits and access instructions. | Keep phone nearby after calling. |
| Emergency symptoms | Call 999. | Do not wait for a GP visit for danger signs. |
