Nursing Team

 

Practice Nurses

We employ highly skilled nurses trained in the monitoring and treatment of chronic diseases such as asthma, diabetes, coronary heart disease, COPD and high blood pressure.

They also run minor illness clinics, can dress wounds, administer injections, deal with contraception and smear tests and generally give healthcare advice. Routine and urgent appointments to see a practice nurse may be made with our receptionists.

 

Healthcare Assistants

Healthcare assistants can assist with a range of clinical duties, for example, taking blood samples, blood pressure checks and ECGs under the guidance of the wider healthcare professional team.
