This is where someone is given access to another person’s medical record. For example: -

• A parent or guardian who has legal responsibility for a patient under 11
• A parent or guardian where a patient aged 11 or over has given permission
• A parent or guardian who has legal responsibility for a patient between 11 and 16 where GP has assessed that the patient is not capable of making their own decisions regarding their medical health
• A carer for a patient over the age of 16 – we would need a letter from the patient giving them permission.

The proxy does not have to be a registered patient at the practice but must be registered for online services on the GP system and always use their own login credentials.  If you would like to register for Proxy Access please complete this form.  You can also collect a copy of this form from reception during our opening hours.
