🚀 Improving how we manage patient demand
Read how our practice has undertaken quality improvement through the General Practice Improvement Programme (GPIP). By reviewing our data and improving the way we work, we’ve been able to better manage demand during one of the most demanding periods general practice has seen.

Over the last year We’ve managed to keep our average routine GP appointment wait time under 7 days, while also making sure we provide the right number of urgent, on-the-day appointments for patients who need them.

📞 Did you know you can contact us by phone, online, or in person to access our services?

🌟 Staveleigh Medical Centre – Building Progress Update! 🌟

We’re excited to share that the first of our two new clinical rooms is really starting to take shape! 🛠️✨ You may also have noticed that the columns in the waiting room have now been stripped back, helping everything feel a little more open as we move forward with the improvements.

Over the next few weeks, you’ll start to see reconfiguration work happening around the reception and entrance areas, and work will begin on our second new clinical room too. Lots of positive changes ahead!

A huge thank you to all our patients for your patience and understanding during the disruption — and our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

And of course, a big shout-out to the amazing team working around us to make sure we can stay open throughout the works. 👏💙

✨ Staveleigh are pleased to offer support to Ridgehill Together! ✨

Last night we were delighted to attend the Community Assembly, where local residents shared valuable feedback about what the community wants and needs, including around healthcare.

Did you know we already offer weekly nursing appointments in the community? And we have plans to expand these services… watch this space! 👀

If you’d like to know more or want to book an appointment in the area, just get in touch — we’re here to help.

Why not pop into the Baptist Church on Ambleside Road, SK15 1EB, and speak to the Ridgehill Together team to find out what’s happening locally? There’s so much great community work underway. 💙
