We want everyone to feel welcome and able to visit our practice. Here’s how we make it easy for people to get around and use our building:
Getting In and Around
- Step-Free Access: There are no steps at our entrance, so it’s easy for wheelchairs, walking aids, or prams to get in.
- Accessible Parking: We have special parking spaces close to the door for people who need extra help.
- Automatic Doors: Our doors open by themselves, so you don’t have to push or pull them. (Not at Shieldfield site)
- Wide Spaces: The hallways and doorways are wide, making it simple to move around in a wheelchair or with a walking aid. (Doors at the Shieldfield site may not be as wide)
- Accessible Toilets: There’s a large toilet with grab rails and an emergency cord to make it safer and easier to use.
Communication
- Hearing Loop: If you use a hearing aid, we have a system to make it easier for you to hear at reception.
- Clear Signs: Signs around the building show where to go, and they’re easy to read.
- Assistance Animals: Service dogs are welcome. Let us know if you’re bringing one.
Need Help?
If you need extra help when you visit, our staff are happy to assist. Just ask us if you need help opening a door, finding your way, or anything else.
If you need someone to translate sign language or help you communicate, let us know before your visit so we can arrange it for you.
