COVID-19: Important Practice Information

Mask wearing within the practice

Mask wearing Policy changes

We are no longer expected to wear masks in our building.

Any patients that we bring in with respiratory or covid symptoms should be asked to wear a mask – be mindful that the law does not require them to.

Acute patients with respiratory symptoms will be seen in our isolation room, away from other patients.

If we have a covid outbreak in the area, we will be required to revert to mask wearing and this will be noted on signs around the building.

We would ask patients to wear a mask if you have:

Respiratory problems
A cough
Flu like symptoms
Any symptoms of Covid
Or are vulnerable or have low immunity

Visiting the Practice

Please avoid visiting the practice unless you have an appointment already booked. When you visit the practice please try to socially distance.

If you are visiting Cornwall, and not registered with us, we ask that you contact your own GP or the 111 service.

If you develop a cough, temperature or lose your sense of smell or taste, please talk to our staff before visiting our surgeries.

Self-Isolating and Prescriptions

A friend or neighbour can collect your prescription on your behalf.

Sick notes

Online Isolation notes for those self-isolating due to coronavirus, either because they have symptoms or they live with someone who has symptoms, can be accessed through the NHS Website.
