Out-Of-Hours
Cover
Out of hours is defined as 6.30pm - 8.00am weekdays plus weekends, bank holidays
and public holidays.
All calls out-of-hours to the surgery will be diverted to the out of hours provider
South East Health since our staff do not work at these times. The out-of-hours provider is unable
to deal with routine appointments and repeat prescriptions.
In order to get in touch with them, you just need to telephone one of our surgeries, and you would get through to them out of hours.
Alternatively, if you need medical advice during these times, you can contact NHS Direct. The telephone number for NHS Direct is 0845 4647 or you can visit there website at: www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk
In an emergency, should you be unable to contact a doctor, you are entitled to
telephone 999 for an ambulance.
