Important Notice 16th December 2021
Following the government announcement recently, NHS England have declared a major incident and advised GP Practices to suspend all non-essential work to deliver the COVID booster vaccinations.
Because of this FROM MONDAY 20 DECEMBER we will only be dealing with urgent medical problems as staff are being deployed to vaccination centres.
All routine appointments have been cancelled.
If you have an admin query or sick note request please e-mail us on cmicb-war.fourseasonsmc@nhs.net.
Prescription requests should be sent via Online access or to our practice e-mail cmicb-war.fourseasonsmc@nhs.net
All non-urgent eConsult requests will be dealt with in the New Year.
Please do not telephone with COVID queries as we will only have one member of our reception team answering the telephones between 8.00 am and 6.30 pm.
For COVID queries please telephone 119 or go to gov.uk
We thank you for your co-operation during this challenging time

Due to ongoing concerns around COVID-19 (Coronavirus) we are temporarily suspending the facility for patients to book online appointments at the surgery. This is to ensure that we are able to fully assess risk before appointments are booked at the surgery.
As you will be aware the practice uses eConsult and patients are advised to seek advice via this service.
Becton Dickinson blood specimen collection - supply disruption
• A supplier to the NHS has advised us of a global shortage of some equipment used for taking blood tests.
• Anyone who needs a test for urgent health problems, will still get one but where your clinician recommends that it's safe to do so, then you may be asked to come back for a test at a later date, or your appointment may be rescheduled.
• Given the nature of the shortage, we cannot give an exact date for when the test will be rescheduled, but please be assured that if your condition or symptoms require it, then you will get a test, and we will be re-booking your test when supplies become more easily available.
• If your condition or symptoms change or get worse, please contact the NHS as you would normally.
