Patients with symptoms of COVID-19 (cough, high temperature and loss of taste or smell), should dial 111 to access the COVID-19 Clinical Assessment Service (CCAS).
This service will determine if the patient requires further attention in primary care. It will triage a patient and where appropriate, book a patient in to a practice directly. To access this service please call 111.
Do not attend the surgery if you have symptoms of Covid-19.
A minor ailments scheme operates at some local pharmacies. If you do not pay for your prescriptions you can still be seen by a participating pharmacy rather than having to attend the GP surgery. Please ask at reception or your local pharmacy for details of the ailments covered.
All patients registered with a Hull GP have access to routine pre-bookable appointments at three locations across the city on evenings and weekends. The service operates Monday to Friday 6.30pm to 8pm. Weekend appointments are also available.
Patients can access a range of online services by downloading the NHS App including:
COVID-19 tends to be mild, self-limiting respiratory illness in children.
Prolonged illness and/severe symptoms should not be attributed to COVID-19 and should be evaluated as usual. The threshold for face-to-face assessment in general practice and for secondary care should not change during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Video consultations mean that patients can have an appointment by a completely secure video link from the comfort of their own home.
To access the video consultation, please contact the practice. The service can be accessed once a remote clinical triage has been conducted.
If you believe that you would require the presence of a chaperone during an examination or consultation by one of our clinicians, please ask our receptionist at the time of booking your appointment. (You may, if necessary, make such a request in the course of a consultation.) Our clinicians may also request the presence of a chaperone if they believe the circumstances warrant it.
Face to face appointments may be arranged following prior triage by a GP.
Please contact the surgery reception by telephone. Do not come to the surgery if you have covid-19 symptoms. When calling the practice, please be prepared to give details to our team so that we can arrange for the most appropriate service to meet your needs.
This out of hours period is from 6.30pm to 8am on weekdays, and all day at weekends and on bank holidays.
To access this service, please call 111. The NHS 111 service will be able to assess your needs and advise the best service to meet those needs.

Most medical problems can be dealt with at the surgery, and patients are generally encouraged to attend the practice for a consultation with their doctor, if at all possible.
However, we fully understand that some conditions or circumstances make surgery attendance impossible. In such cases we would ask that you phone the surgery before 10am.

The move to remote consultation and use of PPE in face-to-face consultations requires additional considerations. For example, the impact of PPE on lip reading.
The GOV.UK website provides advice for the public and is translated into multiple languages. The Doctors of the World has translated relevant NHS guidance into 60 languages. Communication tips and BSL interpreters are available for supporting people with hearing loss to access general practice services
