Yaxley GP

Yaxley GP Welcome to Yaxley GP, part of Lakeside Healthcare. Welcome to Yaxley GP, part of Lakeside Healthcare! About Lakeside Healthcare!

Our close-knit team of GPs, nurses, allied health professionals, administrative and reception staff, are dedicated to providing the best possible healthcare services for our community. Our team works collaboratively to provide healthcare services at Lakeside Healthcare at Yaxley. We are fortunate to have a close-knit team of GPs, nurses, allied health professionals, administrative and reception staff, who are all dedicated to providing the best possible service for our community. Patients are at the heart of what we do and we couldn’t do it without our extensive team. We are lucky to have so many experienced and long serving colleagues, plus newer staff who are committed to a career in Primary Care. We have an experienced management team who deal with the daily running of our practices and our patient service advisors are there to help whether you have a medical concern or administrative query. They are very busy so if your enquiry can wait until after 11am each day then that would be appreciated and should save you time either waiting on the telephone or in our reception areas. We engage regularly with patients through our Patient Participation Group, taking their views into account where possible when making changes and listening to their views, issues and ideas. We also have productive working relationships with the Integrated Care Board and Care Quality Commission and make improvements as and where we can. As well as our daily work in surgeries we also work in the local community, making home visits, providing healthcare for residents in local care homes and offer advice and support on lifestyle and non-clinical issues with our Personalised Care Team of care coordinators and social prescribers. We are busier than ever so thank you for your understanding while we continue recruit, train and develop our team and working practices to see as many patients as we can safely. Yaxley GP is a part of Lakeside Healthcare, a large GP partnership that provides NHS care for around 170,000 patients across Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, Peterborough and Northamptonshire. We are made up of eight GP practices across 14 sites that are all part of their local communities. We work together as practices to provide resilience, sharing learning and professional back-office support services. Our most important asset is our people, who provide care for our patients and help run our surgeries smoothly. We employ over 500 clinical and non-clinical staff and we invest in training and developing to ensure that we retain and attract good quality staff who want to stay with us and be part of our team. We also host a clinical research team who run high quality clinical trials and studies to support the development of new medications and preventative treatment for long-term conditions. We are proud of what we do and strive to demonstrate our values of Caring, Respect, Quality and Teamwork in everything we do. For further information please visit our website.

💊 Don’t save leftover antibiotics for later.

Antibiotics are prescribed for a specific infection. Taking them at another time, or sharing them with someone else, means they may not work properly and can make infections harder to treat in the future.

If you have leftover antibiotics or aren’t sure what to do, your pharmacist can advise.

Today we’re recognising National Pharmacist Day and saying thank you to our pharmacists for the important role they play in helping to keep our patients well.

Our pharmacists support patients every day by helping them use their medicines safely, manage long-term conditions, and get the right advice at the right time.

Thank you for your expertise, care, and commitment to our patients and communities.

Back to work and already dreaming of your next holiday? January might be the perfect time to give alcohol a break and let your body recover from the festive season!

Dry January isn’t about quitting forever . It’s a chance to reset, reflect on how much you’re drinking, and simply feel better after a busy December.🌟

Last year, thousands of people across the UK took part in Dry January with Alcohol Change UK and many said they slept better, saved money, felt clearer, and even lost a bit of festive weight.

If you’re thinking about giving it a go, you can sign up and start your alcohol-free month here ➡️ alcoholchange.org.uk

Not looking to sign up but feeling like you’d benefit from support? You can find local groups and alcohol counselling options here ➡️ nhs.uk/live-well/alcohol-advice/alcohol-support

New Year’s Eve is a night many of us enjoy a drink, whether that’s at home with family, out with friends, or celebrating somewhere special. While you’re raising a glass, it can really help to know what a unit of alcohol actually looks like so you can keep an eye on how much you're having.

This guide gives a simple breakdown of alcohol units and tips for drinking responsibly ➡️ https://www.drinkaware.co.uk/facts/information-about-alcohol/alcoholic-drinks-and-units/what-is-an-alcohol-unit

And just a gentle reminder - drinking and driving isn’t worth the risk. It could cost you your licence, your job, or far worse, someone you care about.

If you feel you might need help or want to cut down, there are local support groups and counselling options available ➡️ https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/alcohol-advice/alcohol-support
