Home Visits

If you are unable to get to the surgery but need to be seen then we will be happy to Doctor's bagvisit you at home, please try to telephone before 10.30 am. Urgent calls will be attended to as soon as possible and the remainder of home visits will be done at lunchtime. 

Please Note: Home visits are for the genuinely housebound, serious and terminally ill patients. Please do not abuse this service. Should you have difficulty getting to the surgery because of lack of transport, the Albrighton Flyer is available for your use (telephone 07543869754) or the Community Car Service (telephone 07900691471). 

Please be aware, if you are requesting a home visit we will only visit you at the address you are registered with at the practice. On no account are we able to provide a home visiting service outside of our practice area.

We regularly use the Urgent Community Response team (previously Rapid Response Team) who may visit on our behalf, it is often more appropriate that they do. They will see conditions that may warrant a hospital admission such as chest infection, urine infection, skin infections/cellulitis and falls in the home (not exhaustive). The team will advise that you may not be visited by a GP from the surgery and this is to ensure that we see all of our genuinely housebound in a timely manner whilst being able to see those we need to in the surgery too. If you wish to have more information about the team please ask the reception team. Thank you
