Introduction
Welcome to The Surgery, Amersham Health Centre. We hope that
you will find this website useful. We aim to provide a high standard of medical
and nursing care for all our patients, with a strong emphasis on disease prevention,
health education and self-help. There is much that you, the patient, can do to
maintain your own good health and the aim of this website is:
- To help
you - by giving useful information about the services we offer and advice on how
to manage minor illness in the home.
- To help
us - by making clear how our services can best be used.
- To help
us to help you - by encouraging a team approach between the practice and the patients.
Practice
Newsletter
This is produced quarterly and informs patients on medical issues, general information and seasonal medical help. If you wish to write a short article for inclusion in our newsletter, please hand your suggestion to the receptionist. If you would like a copy of the newsletter emailed to you please let us know.
Access
To Medical Records
Patients can request access to their medical
records but the records may not be removed from the practice premises. A charge
will be made for access to records, for copies and for computer printouts. There
are times when notes need to be audited in order to ensure that the quality of
care patients receive is monitored and improved, if you have any objection to
this please write to the practice manager. District nurses and health visitors
have access to medical records of the patients in their care.
Violent
Or Abusive Patients
Violent or abusive behaviour towards our
doctors or staff will not be tolerated. Any patient who verbally or physically
assaults a doctor or member of staff will be removed from our list of patients.
Freedom
Of Information
The Freedom of Information Act 2000 obliges
the practice to produce a Publication Scheme. A Publication Scheme is a guide
to the classes of information the practice intends to routinely make available.
This scheme is available on request.
Additional
Services
A wide range of additional services is available.
Please ask at reception for details.
