Many patients assume NHS App notifications are already switched on — but for lots of people, they aren’t. Across Stockton-on-Tees, many NHS App notifications didn’t reach patients simply because notifications were turned off.
You can help by checking your settings and turning notifications ON

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗻:
Open the NHS App > Tap the person icon > Select Notifications > Switch them ON

If you don’t use the NHS App yet, it’s free, secure, and gives you easy access to your appointments, test results, prescriptions and other NHS services:

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

While we're pleased to see a reduction in August, 1,279 appointments have been missed across since April.

Rather than simply sharing the figures, we'd like to hear from you.

💭 What do you think would help reduce missed appointments?

Would more reminders help? Easier cancellation options? Better use of the NHS App? Or is there something else we should consider?

We're genuinely interested in hearing your ideas. Every appointment that isn't attended or cancelled is time that could have been offered to another patient who needs care.

🌐 Website upgrade incoming!

Our website is getting a refresh as we move to a new and improved platform this week.

Most things should move across seamlessly, but if you've saved specific pages in your bookmarks or favourites, there's a chance some older links may stop working.

If that happens, don't worry. Simply head back to our homepage https://www.eaglescliffemedical.co.uk and you'll be able to find what you need from there.

We'll also be making further tweaks, updates and improvements over the coming weeks, so please bear with us if things look a little different from time to time.

Thank you for your patience while we make these improvements. We hope the new website will make it even easier to find information and access our services online.

We know it comes as a surprise every year... 😄But just a friendly reminder that the practice will be closed this Bank Holiday Monday (31st August).

If you need medical help while we're closed, please use NHS 111 online, call 111, or in an emergency call 999.

For those of you that get to have one, enjoy the long weekend! We'll be back to normal on Tuesday.

💙 Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with Dr Muhammad Hamza, GP Registrar.

We're delighted to hear that you felt listened to, supported, and involved in your care. Feedback like this means a great deal.

With the summer holidays coming to an end, now is a great time to start easing back into routines before the new school term begins.

Did you know that 90% of brain growth happens before the age of 5? That's why creating healthy habits around screen time can make a real difference to your child's development. The latest Best Start for Life guidance recommends: 👶📱

- Under 2s: Avoid screen time where possible, except for shared activities such as video calls with family.
- Ages 2-5: Aim for no more than 1 hour of screen time per day, less if possible.
- Keep mealtimes and bedrooms screen-free.
- Replace screens before bedtime with stories, play and family time.

As we head towards September, try introducing regular bedtimes, screen-free mealtimes and more opportunities for play, reading and family activities. Small changes now can help make the return to nursery or school a little smoother for everyone.
