Out-of-Hours Service

When the surgery is closed, telephone 028 6632 7192 and a recorded message will tell you how to get in contact with the doctor. However, if you need a doctor between 6.00pm and 8.30am and at weekends, you can contact Western Urgent Care out-of-hours service direct on 0870 606 2288. This out-of-hours centre is now located at the Erne Hospital, Enniskillen.

The emergency service is designed to deal with acute severe illnesses where treatment will not wait until the next practice surgery. If you feel you need to see a doctor, it is important that you telephone before attending.

DISABLED ACCESS

There are reserved car spaces for the disabled near the main door. We also have toilet facilities for the disabled.

LOOP SYSTEM

We have the loop system installed for those with hearing impairment.

Interpreting Service

Presently we provide interpreters for the minority ethnic groups. However, the interpreting service request that bookings are made two weeks in advance. This service will continue as long as funding is available.

When A Bereavement Occurs

If the death happens at home, please telephone the doctor to come and certify the death (the doctor will tell you when the medical certificate of death will be available).

If the death is sudden, the doctor may not be able to give you a death certificate, but will instead ask a coroner to be involved.

After death in hospital a member of staff will explain to you when to collect the medical certificate of death.
It is practice policy for a doctor within the practice to visit the family home following a bereavement.

To register the death, go to the Registrar of Births and Deaths during office hours, taking with you:

1 The medical certificate of death

2 The deceased’s NHS card

3 Pension book if applicable

4 Birth certificate if possible

You will be given a death certificate by the Registrar. It is useful to obtain a few copies of this, as you will need copies to close bank accounts, etc.
