How to Register your New Baby

You need to register your new baby at the practice as soon as possible. Therefore please complete a General Medical Services (GMS1) Registration Form (also available from reception) and send it to your surgery.   To register a new baby you will require to show the Red Book or the Birth Certificate.  This also has to be registered by a named parent/carer or legal guardian (to provide their ID when registering).

We will require the child's NHS Number. Once we have received the form we will register your baby as a patient at this Practice.

The Practice will arrange an appointment for a mother and baby post-natal check. This is a 30 minute appointment. Your baby’s course of routine immunisations will start at 8 weeks and you will receive an appointment for this. Please remember to bring the red book. If you cannot make this appointment you must notify reception as soon as possible. Please be advised that if you do need to cancel, the next available appointment may be anything up to 2 weeks after that date.
