Research

Anyone registered with this practice could help shape the future of health care by helping with research projects that you may be invited to participate in. You may be approached by a member of this practice to participate in a research project.

Please consider any patient information leaflets you may receive about the research carefully. This information may be sent to you or given to you by your nurse or doctor or other health professional. This Practice is part of a network of General Practices in North & East Yorkshire who host medical research on a regular basis.

Taking part in a research project can vary greatly and might involve completing a questionnaire, agreeing to an interview with a researcher or taking part in a clinical trial.

Patient Reference Group

The 2011/2012 Patient Survey Report is now available for perusal. Please click on "Survey Report" under Further Information, on the right hand side.

Updating patients' records

We are currently asking patients to complete some basic details to ensure that our records are 100% correct e.g. telephone numbers. We would also like to take e-mail addresses so that we can ensure the practice Newsletters are seen by as many patients as possible, not just those who attend the surgery.

Pneumonia vaccination

All patients aged over 65 are eligible for a pneumonia vaccination. This is a single injection that provides lifelong protection. If you will be aged 65 or over on 31st March 2014 and have not been vaccinated, please book via reception.
