Patients rights & responsibilities
You have the right to expect a high standard of medical care from our practice and we will try at all times to provide the very best care possible within the resources available.
In order to assist us in this we require that you take full responsibility for ensuring that you do not abuse the service. For example, it is your responsibility for ensuring that you keep medical appointments and follow the medical advice given.
Very occasionally a practice/patient relationship breaks down completely, in this situation the patient may choose to register with a different practice. The practice also has the right to remove that patient from their list. The patient would be given a specific reason for the removal, and it would only occur after a previous warning had failed to remedy the situation.
Violent Patient Zero Tolerance
The NHS operates a zero tolerance policy with regard to violence and abuse and the practice has the right to remove violent patients from the list with immediate effect in order to safeguard practice staff, patients and other persons. Violence in this context includes actual or threatened physical violence or verbal abuse which leads to fear for a persons safety. In this situation we are obliged to notify the patient in writing of their removal from the list and record in the patients medical records the fact of the removal and circumstances leading to it. The NHS Area Team is then responsible for providing further medical care for such patients.
