Why is the NHS Number important to me?

Online Appointment Booking

Travel Vaccinations
Please note that travel vaccinations need to be booked at least 8 weeks in advance of your travel arrangements. If you have travel plans and need travel advice and/or vaccinations, please collect or download a travel health questionnaire prior to your appointment and bring it with you when you see the nurse. You can find the questionnaire here.

NHS Choices Website
Patients! Please feel free to give feedback on our services, the practice and the care you have received here via the NHS Choices Website. On this page you will find a link for "Find and Choose Services". For our page, please type in our postcode which is S8 7RL. This will take you to a page with a link where you can leave your comments.

Your NHS Number is unique to you. Using your NHS Number to identify you correctly is an important step towards improving the safety of your healthcare.

If you know your NHS Number, or can show your medical card, you can help healthcare staff find your records more easily and share them safely with others who are caring for you.

As an added safety measure, you can start checking the things the NHS sends you to make sure they have the right NHS Number. If not, please contact the surgery.
