The Ystwyth Medical Group Health Pod

Our new Health Pod enables patients to perform their own health checks at any time, instantaneously updating into records and immediately viewable by the doctors and nurses.

Use it whenever we are open for a simple health check – come in any time between 08.00 and 18.30, no need for an appointment

We will ask you to use it before your appointment with the nurse

Use it before an appointment to allow more high-value time with the doctor

What you can do on the Health Pod:

  • Take your blood pressure
  • Take your weight, height and calculate your BMI
  • Enter information regarding your lifestyle e.g. smoking, alcohol

Its very simple to use and instructions are displayed at the pod. If you need help, just ask a member of staff.

If any of the information you have entered means you need to see a doctor then the pod will direct you to make an appointment at reception.

 


Pod Iechyd Grŵp Meddygol Ystwyth

Mae ein Pod Iechyd newydd yn galluogi cleifion i gynnal eu harchwiliadau iechyd eu hunain ar unrhyw adeg, gan ddiweddaru cofnodion ar unwaith a gall y meddygon a'r nyrsys eu gweld ar unwaith.

Defnyddiwch ef pryd bynnag y byddwn ar agor am archwiliad iechyd syml - dewch i mewn unrhyw bryd rhwng 08.00 a 18.30, does dim angen apwyntiad

Byddwn yn gofyn i chi ei ddefnyddio cyn eich apwyntiad gyda'r nyrs

Defnyddiwch ef cyn yr apwyntiad i ganiatáu mwy o amser gwerthfawr gyda'r meddyg

Beth allwch chi ei wneud ar y Pod Iechyd:

  • Cymryd eich pwysedd gwaed
  • Cymryd eich pwysau, taldra a chyfri eich BMI
  • Rhowch wybodaeth am eich ffordd o fyw e.e. ysmygu, alcohol

Mae'n syml iawn i'w ddefnyddio ac mae cyfarwyddiadau yn cael eu harddangos yn y pod. Os oes angen help arnoch, gofynnwch i aelod o staff.

Os bydd unrhyw ran o'r wybodaeth yr ydych wedi'i nodi yn golygu bod angen i chi weld meddyg yna bydd y pod yn eich cyfeirio i wneud apwyntiad yn y dderbynfa.

 


Here is a short introduction to the practice with some introductions to staff members


eConsult


We welcome people of all ages including students to our family friendly medical practice, where we work as a team to provide you with the best possible service.

We are located on the outskirts of Aberystwyth town, near to the Welsh Government offices, with ample car parking and a convenient bus stop.

With patients' needs at the heart of everything we do, our website has been designed to make it easy for you to gain instant access to the information you need. As well as specific practice details such as opening hours and how to register, you’ll find a wealth of useful pages covering a wide range of health issues along with links to other relevant medical organisations.

Get Well, Keep Well

Of course we’re not just here for when you are unwell. Our team of healthcare professionals and back-up staff offer a number of clinics and services to promote good health and wellbeing whatever your medical condition.

Access

Access for wheelchairs is well provided for, with ramp access and automatic doors to the waiting room. However if you need assistance please ask a member of our staff. We have a wheelchair available for use. 

The reception area has an induction loop system for patients with hearing aids.

Cymraeg

Several of our staff are Welsh speaking.


 

Zero Tolerance Policy

The Practice takes it very seriously if a member of staff or one of the doctors or nursing team is treated in an abusive or violent way.

The Practice supports the government's 'Zero Tolerance' campaign for Health Service Staff. This states that GPs and their staff have a right to care for others without fear of being attacked or abused. To successfully provide these services a mutual respect between all the staff and patients has to be in place. All our staff aim to be polite, helpful, and sensitive to all patients’ individual needs and circumstances. They would respectfully remind patients that very often staff could be confronted with a multitude of varying and sometimes difficult tasks and situations, all at the same time.  The staff understand that ill patients do not always act in a reasonable manner and will take this into consideration when trying to deal with a misunderstanding or complaint.

However, aggressive behaviour, be it violent or abusive, will not be tolerated and may result in you being removed from the Practice list and, in extreme cases, the Police being contacted.

In order for the practice to maintain good relations with their patients the practice would like to ask all its patients to read and take note of the occasional types of behaviour that would be found unacceptable:

  • Using bad language or swearing at practice staff
    • Any physical violence towards any member of the Primary Health Care Team or other patients, such as pushing or shoving
    • Verbal abuse towards the staff in any form including verbally insulting the staff or making unfounded allegations
    • Racial abuse or sexual harassment will not be tolerated within this practice
    • Persistent or unrealistic demands that cause stress to staff will not be accepted. Requests will be met wherever possible and explanations given when they cannot
    • Causing damage/stealing from the Practice's premises, staff or patients
    • Obtaining drugs and/or medical services fraudulently
  •  Pressuring clinicians to provide drugs and/or medical services that they deem inappropriate  

We ask you to treat your GPs and their staff courteously at all times.

Removal from the practice list

A good patient-doctor relationship, based on mutual respect and trust, is the cornerstone of good patient care. The removal of patients from our list is an exceptional and rare event and is a last resort in an impaired patient-practice relationship. When trust has irretrievably broken down, it is in the patient’s interest, just as much as that of the practice, that they should find a new practice. An exception to this is on immediate removal on the grounds of violence e.g. when the Police are involved.

Removing other members of the household

In rare cases, however, because of the possible need to visit patients at home it may be necessary to terminate responsibility for other members of the family or the entire household. The prospect of visiting patients where a relative who is no longer a patient of the practice by virtue of their unacceptable behaviour resides, or being regularly confronted by the removed patient, may make it too difficult for the practice to continue to look after the whole family. This is particularly likely where the patient has been removed because of violence or threatening behaviour and keeping the other family members could put doctors or their staff at risk.
