NHS England Out of Area (OOA) Scheme
PMG are not signed up to the NHS England Out of Area Scheme. Any patients formally registered on the scheme from before 2018 will have their status honoured. As per the directions of the OOA Scheme, a patient who needs access to home visiting/ district nurse visits/ community mental health team input or any other community service will need to register with their local practice.
PMG is a Safe Surgery - this is any GP practice which commits to taking steps to tackle the barriers faced by many migrants in accessing healthcare. At a minimum, this means declaring your practice a ‘Safe Surgery’ for everyone and ensuring that lack of ID or proof of address, immigration status or language are not barriers to patient registration. For more information visit this website or see the poster here.
Summary Care Record
The NHS in England is introducing the Summary Care Record, which will be used in emergency care situations. The record will contain information about any medicines you are taking, allergies you suffer from and any bad reactions to medicines you have had to ensure those caring for you have enough information to treat you safely. This information will be available to authorised health care staff providing your care anywhere in England.
We recommend that you read this information available from the NHS by visiting www.nhscarerecords.nhs.uk or by telephoning the helpline on 0300 123 3020.
Your decision is required when registering with PMG.
