Online Services

Connect to your GP services online and save time. Quick, easy and secure.

If you are registered with our GP surgery, you can access some health services online. This means you can do some tasks when it is better for you and avoid telephoning the practice. 

You can do things like:

  • Order repeat prescriptions
  • See parts of your health record, including information about medicines, vaccinations and test results
  • See communications between your GP surgery and other services, such as hospitals
  • Book, check or cancel appointments with a GP, nurse or other healthcare professional
  • Send us a query or request a sick note

Below are some of the main online services we use in our GP surgery:


NHS App

You can find out more about the NHS App, how to download it and get support here (https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-app/).

You’ll need to provide extra proof of who you are to get full access to your NHS account.

Our Practice has created a simple guide on getting started with the NHS App, which you can view here.

Once you have full access, you can:

  • order repeat prescriptions – see your available medicines, request a new repeat prescription and choose a pharmacy for your prescriptions to be sent to
  • book appointments – search for, book and cancel appointments at your GP surgery, and see details of your upcoming and past appointments
  • view your health record – securely access your GP health record, to see information like your allergies and your current and past medicines. If your GP has given you access to your detailed medical record, you can also see information like test results and details of your consultations
  • get your NHS COVID Pass – view and download your COVID Pass for travel abroad. There are also other ways to get your NHS COVID Pass
  • register your organ donation decision – choose to donate some or all of your organs and check your registered decision
  • find out how the NHS uses your data – choose if data from your health records is shared for research and planning
  • view your NHS number – find out what your NHS number is

Your NHS account allows you to access your services through the NHS App or website.  It also allows you to access authorised apps such as Airmid and PATCHS. 

To have an NHS account, you must be aged 13 or over and registered with an NHS GP surgery in England or the Isle of Man.

You can find out more about how to set up your NHS login, you can visit the NHS website: How to set up NHS login

You may find it easier to have an app on your phone to access your account but you don’t have to.  If you prefer, you can access your NHS account online: Log in – NHS App Online (service.nhs.uk)

PATCHS

To help manage online requests from patients, we use PATCHS. 

This is an online form where you can tell us what you need help with by answering a few simple questions.  You can use PATCHS to contact us about a health query or concern, or to ask for help with an administration query related to your health.  If you already have your NHS Login, you will be able to log in to PATCHS using that.  If not, you can register through the link below.

Contact us online via PATCHS
Contact us online!

PATCHS is a way to access your GP practice Online but like all appointments there are a limited number per day. Once these appointments are filled PATCHS will be closed until the next day.

PATCHS – Contact your GP Online

You can register for PATCHS via your registered branch practice website. You’ll be asked to enter your email address and set a password.

Once you have registered, you can access PATCHS by clicking the link on your registered branch practice website or opening the PATCHS app on your smartphone. Login by entering your registered email address & password.

Choose the appropriate option and answer a few simple questions to help your GP understand your problem.

Your answers are sent to your GP who responds as quickly as possible. Initial responses may be via online message or phone, with face-to-face or video consultation appointments scheduled if necessary.
