Home Visits

Doctor's bagWhilst we encourage our patients to come to the surgery, where we have the proper equipment and facilities available, we do appreciate this is not always possible. In this respect, if you do need a home visit, please call reception before 10:00 to see if this is available.

You may only request a home visit if you are housebound or are too ill to visit the practice. Your GP will only visit you at home if they think that your medical condition requires it and will also decide how urgently a visit is needed. Please bear this in mind and be prepared to provide suitable details to enable the doctor to schedule house calls.

You can also be visited at home by a District Nurse if you are referred by your GP.

The Joint Emergency Team (JET) can also attend on behalf of the GP, they provide 24 hours urgent care provision as a support to the Admissions Avoidance Team (AAT) based within Peterborough City Hospital, Accident & Emergency Department.

You should also be visited at home by a Health Visitor if you have recently had a baby or if you are newly registered with a GP and have a child under five years old.
