Managing Health Services for Others
Do you want to help someone with their GP services, or choose someone to help you? Do you want to manage your child’s repeat prescriptions online?
If you’re both patients at our surgery, you can apply to help someone manage their GP services or choose someone to help manage yours.
GP services are things like booking appointments, ordering repeat prescriptions and viewing medical records. You choose the services you want to get or give access to. Once this is set up, you can then access these services through the NHS App.
