Have you read the Guide for Patients on viewing your medical records online?See link above

The system allows you to see a summary of your medical record: diagnoses, allergies, medications, recent consultations, letters to the GP and test results. Are you happy to view this information?

You need two passwords, one to book online appointments and the second to access your medical record. Keep them safe and secure. You should not share your passwords. Do you agree this is safe and secure enough?

You may see that a test result is reported as ‘abnormal’ or information about you that concerns you.

For example, you may have seen a hospital doctor who will write to your GP. You may read information in their letter that you do not understand or you find upsetting. You may have a test done that shows something ‘bad’ that you were not expecting. (e.g. an x-ray report which shows you have a ‘shadow’ on your lungs). You may be reading these results/letters when the surgery is closed, in the evening or at the weekend, before the GP has accessed them.

How do you think you would you react in these circumstances? (Please select appropriate option)

Open results and make a routine appointment to see the doctor/nurse to discuss my concerns

Not view an abnormal result but make an appointment to see the doctor/nurse

Panic and get worked up if surgery is closed

Look at some of the recommended websites

I confirm I already have online access via e.g. the NHS app or patient access
