✨ SUCCESS STORIES ✨

When Ian signed up for our Sleep Transformation Programme, his poor sleep had already been impacting his life for years.

He spent around half of his time in bed awake each night and this meant his days were so much harder to get through, too.

But he put his trust in us, followed our guidance and took back control of his sleep in only a few weeks!

Ian really put his all into the programme and we’re so pleased to have been able to help him break the cycle of poor sleep and get back to sleeping soundly each night. Well done Ian!

Unfortunately we are being affected by a disruption to our water supply. This is due to an issue with a pump that pumps water around the water network. Anglian Water advise this should be resolved by 6pm today.

We are open, but have no toilets available.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

We have searched clinical systems for patients that are eligible for Mounjaro for weight loss. We will be contacting people that are eligible in due course. As a Primary Care Network, we are working through guidance to update processes and develop a delivery model for the limited numbers of people in the first cohort (Grantham 34) and will provide an update once that work is done.

Many thanks

Adult ADHD referrals:

If you would like to be referred for an ADHD assessment, you will need to contact the surgery to request a questionnaire. This needs to be completed with as much information as possible as the answers will be viewed by the triage service and once complete, returned to the surgery.

‼️ Please note if you do not return this questionnaire we cannot proceed with your referral

The secretaries will then forward the information you have provided with your referral.

The triage service will review your request and then, if appropriate, send the referral on to a commissioned out of area treatment service provider.

Lincolnshire ICB’s current Single Point of Access waiting times are below. Please note the below time frames are for single point of access outcomes only and not for appointment timeframes (these are based on the providers individual waiting lists).

🔸High Priority Cases – 14-38 weeks. (This includes cases where the patient has a diagnosis and would like to commence treatment, transition from children to adult services, and cases that have moved into area on a treatment pathway to avoid any gaps in treatment.)

🔸Medium cases – 38-52 weeks. (This included cases where there is a presenting risk.)

🔸Low Priority Cases – 70 weeks.

If your referral has been accepted or declined we will contact you via sms/email/post

St Peter's Hill Surgery has no influence or control over this pathway.

Receptionists are not ‘just admin’ — they are patient advocates, navigating complex systems to get people the care they need. They are the gateway to the clinical team, and without them, there is no access.

But constant abuse is pushing them to breaking point. Burnout is rising, and we are losing skilled staff who can no longer absorb the emotional toll. This campaign is a call for compassion — because protecting our reception teams protects access to care. You don't know what happened on the call they just took
