About Patient Record Access
As of 2nd of December, using the NHS App on your phone or tablet or the NHS site on a computer you can view your medical records.
Currently we are working on getting all the access you need via the NHS APP and you may find that you are limited to what you can see and do with the NHS app. The app is still being developed.
The system allows you to view your medical record over the internet. It allows you to easily and quickly view the electronic medical information held about you by your GP Practice.
The information is presented to you in a format that is easy to navigate and offers you links to resources such as patient information leaflets about diseases, tests, investigations, support groups and medications etc.
What can you see on the system?
The system allows you to view the following areas of your medical record:
- A summary that gives you the most important and recent entries in your health record.
- Consultations including: date, practitioner seen, reason for visit, history, examination, outcome, investigations, etc.
- Medical Record showing diagnoses, investigations, and procedures
- Allergies.
- Patient Information Leaflets linked from the diagnoses in the medical record section.
- Results showing all investigations such as blood results, liver tests, blood pressure etc.
- Vaccinations.
- Medications.
- Letters to and from the GP.
Advantages to you, the patient:
- No queuing to get results
- You can check the accuracy of your medical record
- You are empowered to become more involved in your own medical care
REMEMBER – To protect your privacy, as with all password protected applications on the internet, logout of the system when you are finished.
Please see below the information leaflet and forms for you to complete and return to our Reception in order for us to grant you access. Please be aware, you will need to bring a form of photo ID with you when you bring in the paperwork.
