134 wasted appointments in November 2017

A number of people have complained that they have had to wait longer than normal for a routine appointment. One of the main reasons for this is that, on 134 occasions in November alone, patients failed to show up and failed to cancel their appointment beforehand, appointments that could have been made available to others. If you have an appointment and are unable to attend, please contact us beforehand to let us know. 

 

Home visits

Please do not ask for a home visit if you are able to attend the surgery. If you wish the doctor to visit, please try to contact us before 9am. This allows the doctors to plan their visits and reduce delays. Homes should be smoke free and please ensure pets are put away in another room.

Spiritual Care

Following instructions from The Scottish Government, NHS Dumfries and Galloway has convened a committee to investigate how best to deliver spiritual care to patients in the region.

The goal of this service is that all patients in the NHS, whether in primary (GP) or secondary (hospital) care, feel cared for on all levels - body, mind and spirit.

Scotland is the leading nation within the United Kingdom in this area and it is likely that Dumfries and Galloway will become the leading region within Scotland.

Dr James Clark-Maxwell sits on the Spiritual Care Committee and Dalbeattie Medical Practice was a leading practice in the Community Chaplaincy Listening (CCL) pilot that has now been rolled out as an official government-backed NHS programme.
