Coronavirus
As the Island moves through the phases of ‘de-escalation’, we are moderating our approach to the wearing of face masks and the use of lateral flow tests (LFT) in the Practice with effect from Monday 4th April 2022.
The following guidelines will come into force on Monday 4th April and are consistent with Public Health advice:
Patients attending the Practice
- There is no routine requirement for patients to undertake lateral flow testing prior to coming to the surgery if they do not have any symptoms that might be COVID (cough, sneeze, sore throat etc)
- If a patient is symptomatic they should undertake lateral flow testing.
- If a patient who is symptomatic has a negative lateral flow test negative they should attend the surgery wearing a face-mask/ covering
- If a patient has a positive LFT please follow Public health guidance
- If a patient has a positive LFT and needs to be seen at the GP surgery, please call the Practice on 01481 724184 and we will advise you of the best course of action
- Patients are welcome to wear face masks if they choose when attending the Practice
We would like to thank all of you for being so helpful in these challenging times.
