Aftercare
Handover & out of hours care
How ongoing care works after a consultation or procedure, and when I can attend out of hours.
After my consultation or procedure
Following my consultation or procedure, ongoing care is handed back to the referring practice. If the patient requires assessment or treatment out of hours, they should attend the practice’s designated OOH provider.
I remain available for appropriate case-related advice and will provide the necessary clinical handover. The host practice must have suitable OOH arrangements in place for patients requiring hands-on assessment or emergency treatment.
OOH access to the host practice
Where the host practice provides authorised access to its premises and appropriate facilities out of hours, I am happy to attend and assess new OOH cases.
I am also happy to attend ongoing cases that I have previously treated where the host practice can provide suitable OOH access to the premises. Where access is not available, any patient requiring hands-on assessment or treatment should be directed to the host practice’s designated OOH provider.
