South Queensferry Medical Practice uses several secure IT systems to improve patient care and streamline administrative tasks.
- Referral Management – All referrals sent to secondary care services securely use your unique NHS number to ensure accurate identification and tracking.
- GP to GP Electronic Transfers – When you register or re-register with a new GP practice, your medical records are transferred electronically to ensure continuity of care.
- Emergency Care Summary – With your consent, basic medical details such as your current medication and known allergies are updated automatically. This allows authorised clinical staff to view vital information if you require urgent care outside normal surgery hours.
- Online Services for Prescriptions and Appointments – Patients can order repeat prescriptions and manage routine appointments online. If you are not yet registered for online access, you can do so by visiting our Online Registration Page
