Kildonan House Patient Charter Audit

1. Telephone answering. Aim is to answer 90% of calls within 2 minutes. 

1. GP appointment availability. 3rd available should be available in less than 2 weeks. 

We also conducted a survery monkey to capture patient's experiences with their repeat prescription requests. The comments below summarise the results.

1. Ease of obtaining repeat prescriptions. Target –over 90% of patients should find it easy or very easy to obtain their repeat medication.

Survey done in September 2024. 1084 responses received. 89.34% found obtaining heir repeat medication easy or very easy. Of those who found it difficult 63% felt the problem lay with the practice and 37% felt the problem was with their pharmacy. Multiple comments were received which have been analysed by one of our Advanced Practitioner Pharmacists. An action plan has been developed and the survey will be repeated in the Spring.

We recognise the importance of training the next generation of GPs and are pleased that we have a number of approved GP trainers within the practice. These GP registrars are qualified doctors and are gaining more experience in primary care. There is always a senior, more experienced GP, providing support and guidance whose advice may be sought during your consultation. You may also have two doctors present during your consultation. This is for further training and development.
