The Patient Transport Service provides ambulances to patients who need support to reach their healthcare appointment, or for their admission to and discharge from hospital, due to their medical/clinical needs.
Accessibility
Translation/Interpreting
The surgery has access to telephone and video translation/interpreting services at all times, covering hundreds of different languages. However, please let us know when booking if an interpreter is required so that additional time can be allowed. For BSL interpreters, we may need some advanced notice in order to arrange for an interpreter to attend the surgery.
To access communication support for a hospital or community service appointment please let the provider of the service know when you arrange your appointment. The details of who will provide your appointment can usually be found on your appointment or clinic letters. The service provider will then be able to work with you to arrange necessary support on your behalf.
