Communications Consent Form

We would like to keep be able to send you Practice communications by email and text message.  Please complete this form to provide your consent for us to do so.

Not only is it a quick and low-cost way for the NHS to contact patients, but it also saves patients time waiting on the phone to get through to the Practice or having to visit the surgery.

The Practice may use text messages to 

  • Send appointment reminder messages – this reduces the chance of you missing a necessary health appointment and avoids wasted appointment times that another patient could use.
  • Provide you with the opportunity to book directly into clinics such as Winter flu vaccination clinics, request COVID Booster vaccinations or NHS Health checks.
  • Offer digital health management apps to support you in managing any long-term medical conditions, for example, taking blood pressure readings, living with respiratory conditions or managing diabetes.
  • Ask you to complete online questionnaires as part of medical reviews, e.g. asthma or contraception reviews.
  • Obtain your feedback on your experience (Friends and Family test).
  • Support anyone with hearing difficulties or other sensory impairments by offering an alternative way to contact us.

Please be assured that if you cannot receive text messages or choose not to, you can continue to use other communication methods, e.g. phone calls or visits to the surgery.
