Temporary patient registration

Use this service to register as a temporary patient.

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one, you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice. You will need to register as a temporary resident, using this form.

You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to 12 weeks. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After 12 weeks you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice if you will be in the area for longer.
