NHS 111 is a service that’s been introduced to make it easier for you to access local NHS healthcare services in England. You can call 111 when you need medical help fast but it’s not a 999 emergency. NHS 111 is a fast and easy way to get the right help, whatever the time.

NHS 111 is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Calls are free from landlines and mobile phones.

When to use it

You should use the NHS 111 service if you urgently need medical help or advice but it’s not a life-threatening situation. Call 111 if:

You need medical help fast but it’s not a 999 emergency.

“From 1st October 2022, Greenford Road Medical Centre is offering improved access to appointments and other general practice services.

‘Enhanced Access’ means:

As a Network, we are providing appointments from 7:30am until 8pm on weekdays, and from 9am-5pm on Saturdays.

Appointments will be both bookable in advance (up to 14 days) and available for same day bookings

A mix of services will be available within these additional hours with access to the range of health professionals working in the primary care team, including, but not limited to, GP Appointments, Screening Appointments, Phlebotomy, and Vaccinations.

There will be a choice of ways to access appointments depending on clinical need, such as telephone, video appointment, online consultation, or face to face.  You may be seen or spoken to by the following Healthcare Professional: GP, Nurse, Clinical Pharmacist, Social Prescriber, Mental Health Nurse, Health Care Assistant, Advanced Clinical Practitioner, First Contact Practitioner, Physician Associate

Our Enhanced Access Service is provided in Partnership with 10 other local practices who form Northolt Greenford and Perivale Primary Care Network (NGP PCN).  When a face-to-face appointment is needed, this may be at a GP practice in the local area – this may not be at your own GP practice, but at another nearby.

 

The exact mix of what is provided through this enhanced offer will be determined based on local health needs, current usage of out of hours services and the views of patients.

NHS 111 Urgent Care Services

Call 111 if you need medical help fast, but it’s not life-threatening. For example, if you;

Think you need to go to hospital

Don’t know who to call for medical help

Don’t have a GP to call

Need medical advice or reassurance about what to do next

We do understand that sometimes you may forget your appointment, or that other important life incidents happen and that you sometimes no longer need the appointment. We do ask that if you cannot attend your appointment, please cancel it or notify the practice why you did not attend at your earliest convenience.

We have a large number of people who do not attend their appointments every single week leading to wasted doctor and nurse time, leading to delays in you being able to get an appointment.

You can telephone us on 0208 575 8347, cancel via Systm Online, or come in and speak to Reception.

Please let us know well in advance if you cannot make your appointment so that it may be allocated to another patient.

It is clinically better for you to be seen at the surgery where we have better facilities, diagnostic aids and lighting to assess you. We work closely with Ealing Community Transport to bring patients to the surgery where possible.

Home visits are ONLY for housebound patients and for those too ill to attend the surgery. Home visits are not for those who do not have transport.

If you need a home visit please contact the surgery as early as possible in the morning, before 10:00, and give one of our receptionists details. Our Nursing team will call you back for more information and confirm whether a home visit is appropriate depending on the urgency of your needs. Home visits will be directed to your own GP where possible.
