Registering Your New Born Baby:  
Once your baby is born then it is important that you register the baby as soon as possible in order for their details to be entered on the system before they have their 6-week baby check and are due to start their immunisations at 8 weeks. In order to register your baby we will need to see their full birth certificate, photographic identity of mother i.e. drivers licence/passport   and you need to provide the babies NHS number.  Please speak to reception as baby registration forms differ from adult forms.

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. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.
You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months.

This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.

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.
