Temporary Registration

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. You will need to register as a temporary patient. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. 

To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered. 

Once the form is filled out, please hand in to reception or send the completed forms to: weccg.f81034-results@nhs.net.
