Clinical Acronyms

You will soon be given more access to your medical notes via the NHS app and NHS online. Clinicians use a large range of commonly used acronyms. For more information, please see the following website: https://tinyurl.com/4ndcdd32

On Friday the 19th January we will be using Accurx triage for online communication with patients. This will be replacing eConsult. Most patients will have already used Accurx when receiving or responding to SMS messages. We are making this change in response to feedback.

 

Accurx allows you, as the patient, to describe in your own words how we can help you. It also allows the team to have a much more open dialogue, ask more relevant questions and direct you to the most appropriate service. Those not wishing to use online methods will still have the same access via the telephones or by visiting reception and will be asked similar questions.

 

We would like to thank you for your support and patience in the interim.
