Northern Gas Works will begin roadworks on Great North Road starting the week of 5th May. Four-way traffic lights at The Grove junction will be in place for around two weeks, then will move further along the road for ten more weeks. Please allow extra travel time to avoid delays and help clinicians stay on schedule.

What does “triage” mean?

Published on: 30 Jan 2024

“Triage” is a system by which GPs use information provided by a patient in their online form, in conjunction with their medical records to make a decision on how urgently that patient needs to be seen and who is best placed to fully assess and manage their problem.
Total triage means that all appointment or advice requests are processed in the same way so we can make safe clinical decisions about urgency and allocation of appointments.
