💙 Have you heard of a ReSPECT form? 💙

At Gnosall Surgery, we’re encouraging patients to think about what matters most to them when it comes to their care.

A ReSPECT form (Recommended Summary Plan for Emergency Care and Treatment) is a simple way to record your wishes, preferences, and what’s important to you in an emergency situation. It helps healthcare professionals understand how you would like to be cared for if you became unwell and couldn’t speak for yourself.

📝 Anyone can complete a ReSPECT form – at any age.
It’s not just for end-of-life care, and it doesn’t mean anything is wrong. It’s about planning ahead and making sure your voice is heard.

👩‍⚕️ You can complete one with a clinician at the surgery, where you’ll have the chance to talk things through and ask any questions.

✨ Why consider a ReSPECT form?
• It puts you in control of your care
• It supports your loved ones in difficult situations
• It helps healthcare teams make the right decisions for you

If you’d like to complete a ReSPECT form or find out more, please speak to our reception team—we’re here to help.

CALL FOR RELATIVES: Gnosall Memorial Village Hall War Memorial Plaque

The community of Gnosall is honoured to be installing a new memorial plaque at Gnosall Memorial Village Hall. This will commemorate the men and women from Gnosall, Moreton and Knightley and surrounding villages who gave their lives in the World Wars.

We would very much like to invite relatives and descendants of those named on the plaque to attend a special unveiling ceremony.
If you believe your family member is included on the list (in the comments below) or you have any connection to those commemorated, please get in touch with the Village Hall Committee.

This is a chance for us all to come together, remember and pay our respects as a community.

Please message Gnosall Memorial Village Hall or Mags Yeo on facebook, or email at gnosallmemorialvillagehall@outlook.com.

Thank you for helping us honour their memory.
