Zero Tolerance

Parsonage Surgery in line with other NHS providers upholds a strict Zero Tolerance Policy on all abusive and aggressive behaviour.  Our staff follow guidelines in relation to appointments / contact with patients as set by the Surgery and any abuse directed at our team will not be accepted.

Removal of patients from Parsonage Surgery list:

Having informed an individual patient and discussed the circumstances either verbally or via letter, we would intend to remove a patient from our list for reasons listed below:

  • Living outside of our catchment area
  • Experienced irretrievable breakdown of the doctor / patient relationship
  • Exhibited violent or threatening behaviour to any practice staff
  • Exhibited rudeness to any practice staff
  • Persistently did not attend appointments without cancelling

 

There will be no appeal process.

 

To Patients and Carers of patients registered with GP Practices in Bishop’s Stortford, Much Hadham, Sawbridgeworth and surrounding areas

We at East and North Herts Clinical Commissioning Group and NHS England are writing to you to seek your views about extending the opening hours of GP practices in Bishop’s Stortford, Much Hadham, Sawbridgeworth and surrounding areas, known as Stort Valley and Villages.

GP practices in this area are currently open between 8am and 6.30pm Monday to Friday, with some practices open for longer hours on one or two weekdays and some Saturday mornings. These are called “extended hours appointments”.

The new proposal is to offer extended hours appointments every weekday evening and at weekends/early mornings depending on local demand by October 2018. These appointments will be offered from a central surgery hub, which is different to the surgery that you are registered with. The service will be run by Stort Valley Healthcare Ltd which is a collaboration of all GPs in the area.

Everyone registered with a GP practice in the area is asked to give their opinion on these proposals.
