Alcohol use questionnaire

We notice we are missing important data from many of your records. The NHS uses this information to provide access and resources. 

We are sending out a simple question to ask: 

In an average week, do you drink 

q 14 units or fewer units of alcohol?

q over 14 units of alcohol?

q no alcohol at all?

How much is one unit of alcohol?

A unit is 8 grams of pure alcohol - this is how much the human body can process in one hour. 

For an estimate, 

• A pint (568ml) of lower strength beer (3.5%) = 2 units

• A pint of ordinary strength beer (4%) = 2.3 units

• A pint of high strength beer (5%) = 3 units

• A 330ml bottle of high strength beer (5%) = 1.7 units

• A 500ml can of high strength beer = 2.8 units

• A single shot (25ml) of spirits (40%) = 1 unit

• A small (125ml) glass of wine (13%) = 1.6 units

• A medium (175ml) glass of wine = 2.3 units

• A large (250ml) glass of wine = 3.3 units

• A 275ml bottle of alcopop (4.5%) = 1.2 units

REPEAT PRESCRIPTION POLICY UPDATE - 01.08.2022

We ask you to give us 3 working days’ notice for your repeat prescriptions, if requested using NHS log in, NHS App, Patient Online Access, or MyGP.

In other words, please request your regular medication 3 weekdays before you need it.

If you request using other methods, please allow extra time - up to one week. 

This is because the requests do not go into the doctors' in-box directly, and our receptionists need to re-send through the computer system.

This applies to the computer printout slip, any handwritten or typed notes, and email. Requests via your pharmacist can also take up to one week.

In general, we do not take prescription requests over the phone.

Updating your health records

We are sending messages to a number of our patients (including parents of children registered here), to update their health records.

Of course, if you did not receive a text, but wish to give us new information - for example your recent weight, or that you have give up smoking - please feel free to send by email or eConsult.

Thank you.

- We have a growing team of multi professionals - some you may book with directly, others you may be referred by the GP or nurse.

Check them out in 'Our Team'. (scroll to the bottom of this page)
