Telephone Triage and Appointments
We are continuing to use the Telephone Triage system, as we have found this allows us to treat a larger number of patients and offer more services. Using the triage system, we can ensure that each patient is treated by the most appropriate Clinician for their condition, and where necessary a face-to-face appointment will be given. We now have access to a wide range of services which we can offer to our patients, including:
Doctors
Nursing Team
Clinical Pharmacist
First Contact Physio – Initial physio assessment
Social Prescriber – Working from Silverstone and seeing face to face patients
Weight Management Coach
Mental Health Practitioner
