Accident and Emergency – Dial 999

Whatever the day or time, if you or someone else experience severe chest pain, loss of blood or suspected broken bones, go to your nearest accident and emergency department or call 999. Accident and Emergency departments are open 24 hours per day, 365 days a year and can assess serious injuries and provide emergency treatment.

Your local pharmacist will be able to give you free health advice and you do not need an appointment.

The practice is closed one afternoon per month for staff training. On-going training is an essential part of ensuring both the staff and GP’s remain up to date with any changes to their role or to protocols that affect how they work. The training sessions are referred to as Protected Learning Time (PLT) and are run throughout the country. In Northamptonshire half of the area will close on a Tuesday and half will close on a Wednesday.
The dates are organised centrally and we do not have control over the timetable.
NHS 111 is available to deal with medical queries whilst the practice is closed.
Please see below a list of PLT dates through the year.
