MISSION STATEMENT

The Junction surgery aims to provide unprecedented care and services to the population of Moldgreen and its surrounding area. Our focus is on high quality, holistic care and treatment encouraging patient participation, engagement and feedback. Constantly embracing new technology and resources to give the ultimate patient experience.

The team at the Junction Surgery have been providing high quality care for patients in Moldgreen and surrounding areas for many years. In 2006 we moved to a large purpose built surgery which allows us to offer a wide range of services to our patients.

We are a team of three doctors who have a wide range of specialist clinical interests. We have one male doctor Dr Ali and two female doctors Dr Ahmad and Dr Mariam. We have an Advanced Clinical Practitioner Mr M Afzal, A nursing associate Mr Joe Barlow and a practice nurse Mildred Ackon.

In addition we also accommodate and have access to a social prescriber, a dietician, two health & well-being coaches, First Contact Practitioners (essentially physiotherapists) and pharmacists.

Appointments can be made by calling at the surgery, telephoning 01484 500759 or 01484 451188 between 8.15am and 6.30pm weekdays, or booking online.

We have the provision of enhanced access hours with a late surgery every Monday and Thursday evening. These appointments are bookable in advance. Please ask at reception for further details. 

We are offering NHS Health Checks for all our patients aged between 40 and 74. This programme is aimed to help prevent heart disease, stroke, diabetes and kidney disease. Please contact reception for more details or log on to www.healthcheck.nhs.uk

 Safe Surgeries

In recognition of the barriers to healthcare access faced by people in vulnerable circumstances, including migrants, we commit to protecting the human right to health. We will take steps to ensure that everyone in our community may fulfil their entitlement to quality healthcare. In partnership with Doctors of the World UK, we will ensure that our practice offers a welcoming space for everyone who seeks to use our services. Mindful of our duties to uphold equality and human rights law, we will implement patient registration policies which do not discriminate based on race, gender, sexual orientation, immigration status or any other characteristic. Supported by the Safe Surgeries initiative, we will ensure that our staff understand the specific barriers faced by migrants in vulnerable circumstances and that they are empowered to mitigate these barriers, where possible. We will ensure that a lack of identification or proof of address, immigration status or language do not prevent patient registration. As a member of the Safe Surgeries community, we will endeavour to support other Safe Surgeries and, where appropriate, provide feedback to Doctors of the World UK to support the development of the network.

Active Signposting Choose the right healthcare professional

is one of the 10 high impact actions that practices can take to free up GP time, according to NHS England, providing patients with a first point of contact which directs them to the most appropriate source of help’, which is not always the GP. All our staff will be trained in the art of redirecting patients ensuring that patients see the right healthcare professional in the right place at the right time. It requires the receptionist to be skilled and confident in sensitively ascertaining the nature of the patient’s need and exploring with them safe and appropriate options.’ These might include sources of advice and help from within or outside of the surgery.

The aim is to free up GP time and improve the patient experience by ensuring they go to the service that best meet their health needs faster.

A patient will still always be offered the option of seeing their GP, But now the general practice frontline staff will highlight an alternative healthcare professional or service they could access that could be more appropriate.

This could be a choice of practice or specialist nurse, pharmacist, physiotherapist, or services such as 111 (to access an emergency dentist), social services, mental health support, minor ailments, community acute ophthalmology, contraception and sexual health, smoking cessation, a wide range of community support and voluntary services for carers, the elderly and more.

More details of the services available will be published shortly. The links below will take you to their websites.

PATIENT NOTICE

Due to several upsetting incidents within the last few weeks we would like to remind patients that the junction surgery is not an emergency service and that patients unreasonably demanding emergency treatment will be asked to leave. We will however try and accommodate requests for appointments where urgent treatment may be necessary wherever possible.

We operate a zero tolerance policy in line with NHS recommendations and repeat offenders may be removed from our list.

A GP practice is where doctors see routine medical conditions, referring on to secondary care (hospital) where required. There is no compulsion for a doctor to refer onto secondary care if he/she feels that this is not appropriate.

Requests for sick notes and prescriptions require 24 hours for processing, private forms or letters require much longer and may take several weeks to process. Demands for these being processed sooner will not be tolerated and may be refused entirely.

We ask that patients take this into consideration when attending the surgery.
