Accessing someone else’s information
As a parent, family member or carer, you may be able to access services for someone else. We call this having proxy access. We can set this up for you if you are both registered with us.
To requests proxy access:
- collect a proxy access form from reception from 10am to 6pm
Consent to discuss your information with someone else
In the event that you would like us to speak with someone else on your behalf, regarding your medical information and records, we will need your express, written consent. If you have a Lasting Power of Attorney already in place, please bring the original copy to Reception within our normal opening hours.
Alternatively, you can complete a copy of the below form and return it to us at the GP Surgery.
Linked profiles in your NHS account
Once proxy access is set up, you can access the other person’s profile in your NHS account, using the NHS App or website.
The NHS website has information about using linked profiles to access services for someone else.
