Red Heat Alert

Please take extra care during hot weather. Avoid the sun between 11am–3pm, keep your home cool by closing curtains/windows in sunny rooms, wear light clothing and sunscreen outdoors, drink plenty of water, and limit alcohol/caffeine.

If possible, plan activities for cooler times of the day. Be aware of signs of heat exhaustion or heatstroke and seek medical help if you feel unwell.

Summary care records

Practices are required to enable successful automated uploads of any changes to a patient’s summary information, at least on a daily basis to the Summary Care record.

Having your Summary Care Record available will help anyone treating you without your full medical record. They will have access to information about any medication you may be taking and any drugs that you have a recorded allergy or sensitivity to.

If you do not want your medical records to be available in this way, then you will need to let us know so that we can update your record.
