Hygiene/Infection Control

Our premises are cleaned daily in accordance with national guidelines, but patients also have a duty to act responsibly by not depositing litter (especially chewing gum) other than in the receptacles provided as this can cause accidents and breed disease.

Child Patients, or other children, should be kept under reasonable control and not allowed to go upstairs or annoy other people.  If they do use the toys provided, these should be tidied or packed away after use as clutter can cause accidents.

Friends and family are welcome to accompany patients to the surgery though this should be restricted to a maximum of two people unless in exceptional circumstances.
