If you or someone else is in immediate danger, please call 999 and ask for the police. If you are unable to speak you can use the Silent Solution system from a mobile phone: call 999 and then press 55. The operator will then put you through to the police.
The police will try to communicate with you by asking simple yes or no questions. If you are not able to speak, listen carefully to the questions and instructions from the call handler so they can assess your call and arrange help if needed.
Practice Pharmacists
We have pharmacists in the practice team now who can treat you for minor ailments and help you with medication queries.
NHS Brent Health App
Brent Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) launched the free app in response to calls from patient groups. Brent Health App’s purpose is threefold:
- To communicate health news
- Help find local services
- Provide healthcare information.
Users can also book GP appointments, order repeat prescriptions, access summary medical records, find local services and use as a symptom checker.
To add the app to your phone for free, search Brent Health App in Apple App Store or Google Play.
Sharps Bins
The practice no longer accepts the disposal of sharps bins from patients. Kindly call the Brent Council for more information.
