Cost of Living Support Services

PCN

Cost of Living Event

Last week our fantastic team of Social Prescribers organised a cost of living event at the swan walk shopping centre in Horsham. We were joined by Horsham Wellbeing, Citizens Advice Bureau, Age UK, Horsham Fridge, Neighborhood Wardens, Horsham District Council and more to provide tailored support and advice to anyone in our community who is feeling the pressures of the rise in the cost of living.

These joint-agency relationships are crucial for us to provide the best support possible for our community, and we are proud to be a part of it.

Dementia Information - Orchard Surgery (Horsham Central PCN)

30 people from Horsham District attended an information evening on Tuesday evening at Orchard surgery. There were fascinating presentations from Alzheimers Society Horsham, Horsham Rusty Brains, Horsham Central Primary Care Network Social Prescribing team and staff from Orchard surgery. People shared their experiences of dementia and we discussed how as a community we could provide more support for those who are living with dementia and their carers.
 
There are plans to develop a series of supportive and informative sessions for patients with dementia and their carers. If you would like to attend these or help us to design them or both, please get in touch by ringing Orchard Surgery on 01403 253966.

eConsult Changes

With effect from 14th November, our eConsult service will be managed by our federation, Alliance for Better Care CIC (ABC) with the aim of improving access for our patients.

For you, our patients, there will be no change to the process of completing your e Consult, however you may be contacted by a GP or Nurse Practitioner from ABC on behalf of the practice. If they are unable to help or feel it is more appropriate for your own GP to contact you, they will ask them to do so.

 

NEW PATIENTS

New Patient Registrations

 

Holbrook Surgery regrets that it is not at present able to register NHS patients.

The decision has been taken in order to ensure the practice can continue to safely provide NHS services to its currently registered patients.

The practice is not able to maintain a waiting list of patients who would like to register in the future.

Once Holbrook Surgery is able to commence accepting NHS registrations, this information will be available at reception and on the practice website.

If you are not currently registered with an NHS General Practitioner locally, and need to see a doctor or a nurse, you can attend the Walk in Centre at Crawley Hospital, West Green, Crawley, RH11 7DH or contact GP Allocations phone number (Tel: 07425 616194) and email address sxccg.gpallocations@nhs.net also https://www.westsussexccg.nhs.uk/your-care/finding-a-local-nhs-service/help-for-patients-if-a-gp-practice-has-suspended-new-registrations/  for further advice.
