A big thank you to Dan from (mytime Wigan) for coming to Bridgewater Medical Centre TODAY!

📍The team at mytime Wigan me recognize and value the vital role carers play in our community. Carers hold families together, often making huge sacrifices along the way. Mytime aims to ensure that carers access a break from their demanding caring roles.🫂

Remember carers need a break too!

We are now live with a new triage system called Accurx!📱

Patients will be able to submit requests either through our website (where the Ask My GP page has been replaced by Accurx) or via the NHS App. 🖥️

The previous system ‘Ask My GP’ is no longer available so please ensure you send your requests to the new platform. See the link below:

💜 The unspoken side of our job 💜
The background work we do, often unseen by the public, is usually the most crucial. We have very sensitive, complex and emotional conversations surrounding a persons preferred place of death. We want to ensure each patient and their families are heard, cared for in the most dignified manner and most importantly in the way in which they choose.
Both the clinicians and administrative teams work tirelessly to ensure smooth organisation of the transition from life to death.
Recent weeks have seen us say goodbye to many treasured patients and it never gets easier.
We want to extend our own thanks to all their families for the gifts, kind words and allowing us to be part of their lives at such a vulnerable time.
The NHS may seem fractured, but we simply cannot afford to be without it 🤍
