‼️ URGENT PATIENT INFORMATION: IT OUTAGE AFFECTING GP PRACTICES ‼️

Dear Patients,
Our practice, along with many other GP surgeries across the country, is currently experiencing significant service disruptions due to a national IT outage affecting our clinical systems.

What this means for you:
We have limited access to patient records, appointment scheduling, and electronic prescription processing.
Our online services (e.g., website forms, online booking via the NHS App) are also impacted and may be unavailable at this time.
Phone lines may be busier than usual, and you may experience delays.

How to get help:
If you have an appointment today, please attend as planned unless you are advised otherwise by the practice.

🎄We at Church View love being part of the Horton and Broadway community and this year have decided to raise money for 2 local charities,
Rosie Crane Trust and Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance
From Monday 22nd to Wednesday 24th, staff will be wearing their favourite Christmas jumpers ( and possibly some silly hats 🥴) and we are hoping the kind and generous visitors to the surgery will donate to the two very special charities.❤️
And who knows , if we raise enough money we may even convince Dr Trenchard to join in on his last week with us before retiring 😜

If you can spare a few pennies ( or pounds 😘) please click the link below or drop in the collection box that will be located at the dispensary

Thank you for all your support over the past year and we wish you all a very Merry Christmas 🎄

Help Donna Smith raise money to support Rosie Crane Trust
