Noticeboard

Mask Wearing

From the 16th May, the Scottish Government has advised to stand-down the current guidance regarding the extended use of fluid resistant face masks (FRSM) and face coverings within health and care settings for staff, patients and visitors.  

It is no longer necessary to wear any face covering unless it is required where there is a risk from close contact with individuals displaying respiratory symptoms.

Patients will not be asked to wear face masks unless there is a risk of transmission from individuals with respiratory symptoms, however, patients and visitors may still choose to wear a face covering as a matter of personal choice.

The new guidance covers all hospitals, health centres, community sectors, primary care facilities and care homes.

 VERBAL ABUSE

Unfortunately, our practice staff have been subject to an increase of verbal abuse over recent weeks from a small number of patients.

This is not acceptable and we would like to remind everyone to be mindful of this when contacting the practice.  The practice is extremely busy and we are dealing with queries as quickly and efficiently as we can.

Verbal abuse towards any of practice staff will not be tolerated and may result in you being removed from our practice list.
