Why is it important to phone first?
Please do not come to the centre without phoning first.
This is because:
- Many problems can be sorted out over the phone.
- Patients often come to the centre when they need to go to ED instead.
- Patients who ‘drop in’ may have to wait longer. Those who have been asked to come to the centre will usually be seen first.
- All the centres are not staffed all the time which can result in unnecessary delays for patients.
What will happen when I phone?
- Your details will be taken by an experienced member of staff who will advise you on the call back time.
- Your call will be clinically graded by a specialised nurse and placed in a queue for triage.
- A clinician will call you back. Depending on your query you may be given advice over the phone, be asked to attend a centre, or a home visit will be arranged.
