C-Card Scheme
We are pleased to announce we are now part of the C-Card Scheme in partnership with Sexual Health West Sussex. If you are already joined the scheme you can pick up condoms from all 3 surgery sites. If you wish to join the scheme make an appointment to see Ronna. The scheme is open to anyone aged 13-21 years of age. Screening for sexually transmitted diseases and counselling for contraceptive needs can also be provided as part of the C-Card service we offer.
If you would like advice on any aspect of contraception, fertility awareness or sexual health, we have female doctors and nurses available.
The Podiatrist has a consulting room in our Hassocks Surgery. She is not employed by the Practice and patients who are eligible to use her services must be referred by their doctor.
Immunisation is a way of protecting ourselves from serious disease. Once we have been immunised, our bodies are more able to fight those diseases if we come into contact with them. It is important that your child has their immunisations at the right age. This will help keep the risk of your child catching these diseases as low as possible.
You will be sent reminders of when your child is due for their immunisations.
Please see the Vaccinations Schedule for detailed information.
Our Nurses can see patients for their asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes and contraception needs.
Nurses can deal with smears, blood tests, ECGs, dressings and removal of sutures.
Selected Nurses can see patients for contraceptive needs to include repeat contraceptive pill, change of contraceptive pill or for those wishing to discuss and start oral contraception.
