Both pieces of equipment will print out a slip of paper recording your results – please write your full name and date of birth on the back of the piece of paper and pop it into the box in the health corner. These results will be added to your personal patient notes which will help clinicians to access up to date information when assessing your care.

Booking clinics and regular antenatal checks are carried out here at the Surgery . Appointments can be made via reception.

A mental health navigator can help you to explore services, groups and activities available locally that can support you to improve your health and emotional wellbeing.

You may notice a "Johns Hopkins score" or "Patient Needs Group (PNG)" mentioned in the NHS App or by the surgery team.

This is simply a way of understanding patients' health needs more clearly, so that care can be better planned and delivered.

What is it?

The Johns Hopkins Scoring System groups patients according to their health conditions and the level of support they may need.

• It is based on research widely used across the NHS.
• It looks at things like long-term conditions, how many conditions a person has, and how complex those conditions are.

Why is it used?

• To make sure patients get the right care at the right time
• To help the surgery plan services and appointments effectively
• To identify patients who may need extra support or early checks
• To focus on prevention and keep people healthier for longer

What do the groups mean?

• Green (Low Need): People without significant health issues, focus on staying w℮ll
• Orange (Moderate Need): People with one or more stable conditions, may need occasional support
• Red (High Need): People with several or complex conditions, who may need more regular or coordinated care

What does this mean for me?

• Your care remains personalised.
• Your right to access GP or nurse appointments does not change.
• The score simply helps the surgery to plan better, fairer, and more proactive care for everyone in the community.

This score is for planning and support. It does not affect your right to access care.
