Nursing Team
| The
five registered Practice Nurses offer a
wide range of skills and provide regular clinics Monday to Friday,
throughout the day, with a mixture of book on the day and pre-bookable
appointments. The services they provide include minor injuries, health
checks, healthy lifestyle advice, cervical screening, travel vaccinations,
ear syringing, removal of stitches, blood pressure monitoring, wound care
and smoking cessation advice as well as specialist clinics for monitoring
patients with asthma, diabetes, coronary heart disease and stroke. They also
welcome young patients who may wish to discuss health issues. For further
information about each of our nurses please look at their pages. The Healthcare Assistants support the Practice Nurses by doing ECGs, taking blood, assisting with minor surgery, blood pressure monitoring, new patient checks, flu and pneumonia injections and some offer advice on how to stop smoking and weight management. Although highly competent, they are not qualified to interpret results or give any medical advice other than on smoking and weight management. |
