NHS England has introduced the Summary Care Record (SCR) which will be used in emergency care. The record will only contain information about any medicines you are taking, allergies from which you suffer and any adverse reactions you have had. This allows those caring for you have enough information to treat you safely. Your Summary Care Record will be available to authorised healthcare professionals providing your care anywhere in England, but they will, where possible, ask your permission before they look at it. This means that if you have an accident or become ill, those treating you can have access to important information about your health.
If you wish to OPT OUT please complete an SCR Opt-Out Form and email it to / give it in at reception.
Proxy Access
Proxy access is available for online services. This is for patients who are under 16, and for those who have difficulty accessing online services themselves.
To request for Proxy Access for patients over 16, a consent form must be signed by the patient.
Parents can request proxy access for their children.
Before giving you access, the GP surgery may need to check:
- ID for you and the child, for example passports
- documents that help to prove you have parental responsibility, for example a birth certificate
- with anyone else that shares parental responsibility with you
- for safeguarding issues
- that the child consents to your access (agrees to it) or lacks capacity to consent, if they are aged 11 or over
You do not have to live at the same address as the child to have access.
You can have proxy access for more than 1 child, and a child can have more than 1 proxy acting on their behalf.
Please note: When requesting Proxy Access, both individuals must be registered to Suthergrey House Medical Centre. We cannot set up proxy access for patients to those who are not registered with the surgery.
