Home visits

Home visits will be made if the patient is too ill to attend the surgery. You should be aware that the doctor cannot make a home visit before he/she has finished seeing the patients who are waiting in the surgery.

Your responsibilities to us are:

  • not to request a home visit unless the patient is too ill to attend the surgery
  • to ensure that requests for home visits are made as early as possible during the morning, preferably before 10am.
