New Patient Registration

Anyone in England can register with a GP surgery if you live in the practice area. It’s free to register. Please click the link below to register at our practice.

Register

You do not need proof of address or immigration status, ID or an NHS number but it might help of you have one or more of the following:

  • Passport
  • Birth certificate
  • HC2 certificate
  • Rough sleepers’ identity badge
  • Hostel or accommodation registration or mail forwarding letter

Temporary Registration

If you’re homeless, you can give a temporary address, such as a friend’s address, a day centre or the GP surgery address.

You will be registered within a week and the Practice will provide any patient with more urgent health care if the treatment required is:

  • Immediately required as a result of an accident or emergency, or
  • Is essential treatment which cannot reasonably be delayed until the patient returns to their home country, or
  • Is required as a result of a condition which has been exacerbated during the patient's stay in the UK

Named Accountable GP

All patients have been allocated a named GP who takes lead responsibility for the co-ordination of their care. If a patient has a preference as to which GP that is the practice will make reasonable efforts to accommodate their request.

If you are unsure who your named GP is, please contact the surgery.

Proxy Access

Proxy access was developed to allow someone other than the patient to access and manage parts of their GP online services account. The proxy is given their own online access account (rather than using the patient’s login details). It is often used by the parents or recognised carers of young children, and recognised carers of adults.

Access given to authorised care staff must be agreed between the:

  • resident/patient and or their representative
  • care home
  • patient’s GP practice.
  • Access is generally given from the date of admission to the care home but longer, retrospective, proxy access can be given if the GP agrees this would be of benefit to the resident.

When record access is enabled for a proxy user, this should start from the date access is given unless an earlier date has been agreed between patient, GP, and care home.

To find out more information or set up Proxy access please contact reception on 01865 771313 or bobicb-ox.reception.dhc@nhs.net
