Student Appointments

Good Morning
This week we are starting to offer appointments with our medical student Abi, initially there are only two each on a Wednesday and Thursday morning and we ask you to allow 45 minutes for these. The appointment will be approximately 30 minutes with Abi then the GP will join for the rest of the consultation, possibly from next week we will have more appointments and they will be reduced to around 30 minutes in total.

Ideally the most useful problems to see the student with are new presentations although she will still learn from seeing people who have already been seen before.

Please take advantage of this service and help the next generation of Healthcare Professionals to develop.

Thank you.

Morning update.
We will need to reschedule all of today's nurse appointments (7 January) the GP has checked and there is nothing that can't be rescheduled. Please call today if you have a nurse appointment to re arrange.
Stock wise we did get most deliveries yesterday but we still are struggling for some items that we are trying to get from other suppliers ( We are mainly limited to only 3 companies we can buy from ) so worth waiting another day or at least to the afternoon for picking up.

Thank you again and sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Operational update

Good morning we are all up and running although the GP did say the roads from Helmsdale were worse this morning than yesterday. We received yesterday's delivery this morning although our two smaller deliveries have not managed to get through before the planned road closure. The side roads are still pretty poor and our car park is looking rather pathetic but hopefully this will be sorted out sooner rather than later but at least we can get in and sort of park.

Have a good day.
