Practice Nurses

Practice Nurses  - Mrs Rachael Hayward, Mrs Heather Horan RGN & Mrs Frances Hart

Practice Nurse Times:

Our practice nurses are able to provide advice about many aspects of health care including Family Planning, Asthma,  Diabetes, HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) , Health promotion, Smoking Cessation, immunisations (for travel and routine baby immunisations), dressings e.t.c. They carry out all Cervical Smears on ladies on the NHS Recall system. 

They can also deal with a variety of minor injuries such as sprains, burns, and splinters. It is often much easier to get an appointment with one of our Nurses. If you think they may be able to deal with your problem please ask the Receptionist for an appointment. If you are not sure the Receptionist may be able to help you.

One of our Nurses also runs a special clinic for Patients with Coronary Heart Disease. This is a new NHS initiative and if you suffer with this condition you will be contacted over the next twelve months.
