How GP practices in Wakefield will be working to tackle coronavirus
The ongoing coronavirus pandemic has put an increased demand on primary care services in Wakefield.
As a result of this, and in line with this week’s government’s guidelines about staying at home to stop the spread of the virus, patients should not attend their GP surgery without an appointment and should make contact by telephone – but only when necessary.
If you do have a confirmed face-to-face appointment with a clinician, you may be asked to see them at a neighbouring GP practice to the one you would usually attend.
This is because some practices will be closed or reorganising themselves to effectively cope with increased demand and suspected coronavirus (COVID-19) patients.
These changes will begin to take effect from Tuesday 31 March.
The location at which you will be seen will always be communicated to you by your clinical team who you will always be able to contact via your usual GP practice number.
As you will be
able to appreciate, this is an unprecedented time so your
cooperation, understanding and patience are greatly appreciated.
Please continue to keep up to date with the latest advice around
coronavirus on the NHS website:

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PRACTICE WILL BE CLOSED ALL DAY FOR THE FOLLOWING BANK HOLIDAYS IN 2020

GP practices across Wakefield are now offering weekend and evening appointments.
The new GP Care Wakefield scheme enables patients across the district to have access to GP support after normal practice hours.
This enables patients to have access to medical advice and, if required, access to a Wakefield GP appointment, through their normal GP practice telephone number between:18:00 and 22:00hrs Monday to Friday
· and from 09:00 to 15:00hrs Saturday, Sunday and Bank Holidays
Patients who use the service will be provided with medical advice from a dedicated nursing team, who can then refer them to a GP appointment that day, if required, at one of two sites across the district.
