Register as a New Patient

Please ensure you complete both forms or your registration cannot be fully processed.

How to Register if You are Homeless

Named Accountable GP

Once you have successfully registered with the Practice you will be allocated a named, accountable GP who will have overall responsibility for your care. We will advise you who that will be. Whilst you are entitled to consult any of the GPs in the Practice, we would encourage you to remain under the care of your named GP for continuity. We will endeavour to accommodate any preference you have for your named accountable GP. Please let us know if this is the case.

Temporary Registrations

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.

You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.

To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.
