Half of cold symptoms are likely to be COVID!

For a high number of people, an Omicron positive COVID case will feel like the common cold. Symptoms may include:

• Sore throat
• Runny nose
• Headache

We would therefore ask that if you have symptoms of a cold, you book a PCR test as soon as possible and isolate until you receive the result. 

Please do not come to the surgery if you are experiencing any symptoms of COVID 19. 

NHS Patients, staff and visitors must continue to wear face coverings in healthcare settings.

Chief Nursing Officer for England, Ruth May, has reminded the nation that anyone accessing or visiting healthcare settings must continue to wear a face covering and follow social distancing rules. 

Whilst many settings will no longer implement social distancing rules, Public Health England's infection prevention guidelines and hospital guidance will reamin in place for all staff and visitors. 

As a practice, we would like to thank our patients and visitors who have followed guidance to date, and we would ask that you continue to respect the above guidance when visiting the surgery. 

Latest Information

Bennfield Surgery is 1 of 12 surgeries within the same Primary Care Network. The PCN consists of GP practices working together, along with other healthcare staff and organisations, providing integreated services to the local population. 

Each PCN is given a sum of money and it is up to the PCN to determine how best to spend that money, depending on the needs of the area. 

Our PCN has employed a variety of PCN staff to ease the pressures from GPs and to bridge the gap between GP and Hospital referrals. 

Some of the staff already employed are:

• Pharmacist
• Occupational Therapist
• Physiotherapist
• Chiropodist
• Dietitian

Some of the services offered above are directly bookable by our Reception staff and you may be offered an appointment with one of the PCN staff rather than a GP when phoning for an appointment. 

The GP Protected Learning Time (PLT) days are held regularly and contribute towards our staff continuous professional development. 

On these PLT days, the surgery will be open as usual in the morning and will close at 12.30pm. Any urgent queries during the afternoon of a PLT day should be directed to NHS 111.

Forthcoming PLT days for 2022 are:

Thursday 3rd February

Wednesday 9th March

Thursday 7th April

Thursday 12th May

Wednesday 22nd June

Thursday 15th September

Wednesday 12th October

Thursday 24th November
