GP Feedback: a new system has been introduced which will enable the CCG to collate and manage GP feedback in a more streamlined and proactive way. This new system replaces the on-line GP feedback form, which ceased on the 31 March 2018. Every two months a short questionnaire will be issued to GPs which will ask a series of easy-to-answer questions.

For Serious Incidents or serious quality and safety concerns, please continue to email your concerns to NSHCCG.MidNottsReporting@nhs.net .

 For contracting issues, please email your designated Service Development Manager directly.

Important Updates

14.05.18 - ULHT 2WW BREAST REFERRALS

Please be aware that the United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust (ULHT) 2WW breast services are reporting that first appointments are not available until around day 26.

Patients should be made aware of expected waiting times when discussing their choice of provider.

10.05.18 – NUH BENIGN HEAD AND NECK REFERRALS

Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is currently unable to accept new referrals for benign Head and Neck services; therefore GP Practices located within the Mid Nottinghamshire locality will be unable to refer patients to the Trust as this option has now been removed from the e-referral menu. 

 Practices should therefore refer patients to Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust or an alternative provider identified in line with Patient Choice.   

 Further updates will be provided when they become available. 

 If you have any questions, please contact Nicola Brown.

03.12.17 - SFH NEUROLOGY REFERRALS

Sherwood Forest Hospitals Neurology Service will close temporarily to new referrals from midnight on Sunday 3rd December 2017.

Alternative providers of Neurology Services should be utilised in line with Patient Choice.
