Practice Monthly Afternoon Closure: November 2024
The Surgery will be closed on the afternoon of Thursday 21st November 2024 & Thursday 28th November from 12:30 - 18:00, due to staff training.
If you require medical advice during this time, please call NHS 111.
The monthly training session is important for all practices as it gives us the opportunity to have well attended team meetings, for the team to spend quality time with colleagues; whilst refreshing skills or learning something new. Finding time during the working day can be very difficult due to patient care requirements, part-time staff and their working patterns. All staff have to undergo statutory and mandatory training on a regular basis and to be able to demonstrate continuous professional development is a requirement for re-validation for all clinical staff. The training afternoons are led by either our ICB (commissioner), PCN (primary care network) or the practice. The majority of practices in England will be benefiting from this protected learning time.
Thank you for your understanding.
