📱 Important Information About NHS App Messages
The NHS is continuing its move towards digital-first communication, helping patients receive information securely, quickly and conveniently through the NHS App.

If you have the NHS App and notifications switched on, messages from your GP practice and other NHS services may be sent directly to your NHS App inbox. You'll receive a push notification letting you know that a new message is waiting for you.

✅ Open and read the message in the NHS App to view the information securely.

📩 If the message is not opened, or cannot be successfully delivered through the NHS App, a fallback message may be sent via SMS to help ensure you receive important information about your care.

Using the NHS App helps:
✔ Receive messages securely
✔ Reduce NHS messaging costs
✔ Access healthcare information in one place
✔ Support the NHS's digital-first approach to patient communications

To make sure you don't miss any messages:

📲 Download the NHS App
🔔 Enable notifications in both the NHS App and your device settings

📬 Check your NHS App inbox regularly [nhs.uk], [digital.nhs.uk]
Learn more about NHS App messaging: https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-app/

Use the NHS App to view your health information and manage your healthcare online using a phone, tablet or computer.

💙 What Do We Do for You at Barcroft Medical Practice? 💙

Many people think their GP practice is just for appointments when they're unwell, but we're here to support your health, wellbeing, and independence in many different ways.

At Barcroft Medical Practice, we provide a wide range of services designed to help you stay healthy, manage long-term conditions, access the right support, and get the care you need when you need it.

🩺 GP Consultations & Quick Access to Care Our online consultation system, Anima, makes it easier than ever to contact us. Whether you have a new health concern, need advice, or require follow-up care, you can submit a request online and our team will ensure it reaches the most appropriate clinician.
✅ We are now responding to 90% of Anima requests within 24 hours, helping patients get advice, treatment, appointments, or signposting quickly and efficiently.

💊 Medication & Pharmacy Support Our prescribing team can help with medication reviews, prescription queries, long-term condition management, and ensuring your medicines are working effectively for you.

❤️ Long-Term Condition Care If you live with conditions such as diabetes, asthma, COPD, hypertension, or heart disease, we provide regular monitoring, reviews, and support to help you stay well and reduce complications.

👩‍⚕️ Nursing & Preventative Healthcare Our nursing team offers: • Health checks • Blood tests • Immunisations and vaccinations • Cervical screening • Wound care • Monitoring and reviews for chronic illnesses
Prevention is often the best medicine, and these services help identify problems early and keep you healthier for longer.

🧠 Mental Health Support Looking after your mental wellbeing is just as important as your physical health. We can provide support, advice, assessments, and referrals to appropriate services when needed.

🌱 Social Prescribing – Support Beyond Medicine Sometimes the best solution isn't a prescription.

Our Social Prescribing Team helps connect patients with community services and local support that can improve wellbeing and quality of life. They can help with: ✅ Loneliness and social isolation ✅ Bereavement support ✅ Financial or housing concerns ✅ Exercise and activity groups ✅ Community activities and volunteering ✅ Confidence, wellbeing, and lifestyle support
By addressing the wider factors that affect health, social prescribing can make a real difference to both physical and mental wellbeing.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Care for the Whole Family From childhood vaccinations to healthy ageing support, we're here for every stage of life.
Our goal is simple: to provide the right care, at the right time, from the right member of our team.

💙 Thank you for choosing Barcroft Medical Practice. We are committed to delivering accessible, compassionate, and high-quality care for our community.
