Other Information
Chaperones
The doctors and nurses at our practice have been advised to offer all patients the
courtesy of a chaperone whilst being examined. For any intimate examination, a
full explanation of what the examination will involve will be given to you by
your doctor or nurse and they will ask permission to carry out this examination.
They will also ask you if you would like to have someone else present whilst you
have this examination. This person may be a friend / relative or another member
of staff from Manor Park Surgery. If you know an intimate examination is required,
do bring a chaperone with you; if that is not possible, the practice will provide
one. If you have any questions or queries regarding chaperones, please ask your
doctor or nurse.
Mobile Phones
If you have a mobile phone with you when you attend your appointment, please ensure
that it is switched off.
