View PostMansfield CVS is offering support to those who are struggling to register with a GP.
The NHS deal with thousands of people going to A&E each year, when not needed because they are not registered with a GP.
One of the reasons people do not get registered with a local doctor is because of a language barrier or a fear that they will need an NHS number or fixed address.
Although preferable to have, anyone can register to be a patient at a GP surgery. You do not need
- Proof of immigration status
- A fixed address
- An NHS number
To register with a GP, you can find more information at www.nhs.uk/register or you call your local surgery and ask to be registered.
If you are struggling to register, call Lesley Watkins on 01623 392444 or email lwatkins@mansfieldcvs.org for support.
