Medical Education

We are delighted to be involved in medical education at the Roslea practice and offer teaching to both medical students from Manchester University and fully qualified doctors undergoing further training to become general practitioners.

Patients will be kept fully informed and may be asked to assist by being seen by medical students or trainee doctors on occasions. If you have any objections you may, of course, decline to be seen by anyone other than one of the partners. However, your co-operation is very valuable in the training of young doctors and would be very much appreciated.

Our ongoing commitment to training keeps the whole of the primary health care team on its toes and at the forefront of medical advances!

THE PRACTICE TEAM

Receptionists/Secretaries

Our staff are here to help you as best they can, and they do a difficult job well. Please remember that if you are kept waiting or seem to be asked one or two detailed questions, they are carrying out our instructions to help the practice run smoothly.

All staff are fully trained, competent and caring. They are bound by the same rules of confidentiality as the doctors. They try to keep both the doctors and the patients happyin what is a difficult job. Please be patient with them.

Practice Managers

They are responsible for the smooth running of the practice and should be able to help you with any questions. They are happy to receive any suggestions you may have about improving the service we offer.

Practice Nurses

The surgery has four practice nurses Gina Entwisle, Susan Higginson, Doreen Brown and Stephanie Glover. The nurses are available for:- blood pressure checks, smoking cessation advice, asthma/chest clinic reviews, travel health information and vaccination, contraceptive advice and pill checks, weighing, dressing changes, any health promotion issues and advice on minor ailments. They also offer an ear syringing service, a cytology clinic and a freezing clinic and are available by appointment for help and advice on any medical matter that may concern you.

If you are not sure a doctor's time is needed, please use this valuable service; the nurses are highly qualified and available by appointment to help you. A visit to the nurse may avoid someone who is quite poorly being unable to be seen more urgently by the doctor.

Community Nurses

They are a vital link between the practice, the infirm elderly and those recently discharged from hospital.

The hospital and your own doctor can refer you to them. They can be contacted at the Bamber Bridge Clinic between 1.30 - 2.30pm on 01772 644676.

Community Psychiatric Nurses

The community psychiatric nurses are based at the Pathways Centre in Bamber Bridge.

Health Visitor / Nursery Nurse
