It is important that you first check to confirm you live within our Practice Boundary before you complete this registration form. There are currently a number of housing developments being built so if you are moving into one of these and think your postcode is within our area, please Contact Reception as it can take a little while for new postcodes to be recognised. Please be aware that the Bucklers Park development on Old Wokingham Road is outside our boundary.

If you have served more than 24 hours or more as reserve or regular in the Armed Forces, please complete the Veteran Details section. If you are a Veteran, please see this Important Information.

Safe Surgery

Everyone in the UK has the right to free care from a GP. If you don’t have proof of ID or address, you can still register. Immigration status or nationality don’t matter – reception won’t ask for immigration documents and won’t share your information with the Home Office unless serious crime is involved.

Temporary Patients

If you are staying temporarily within our boundary area and need to see a GP or nurse, please contact reception to discuss your needs and they will tell you what you need to do to register as a temporary patient.

Practice boundaries often cross over, so the general rule is that if you are staying with someone (friend/family/relative) we would normally expect you to be seen by the practice they are registered with. If you are here for work/visiting and staying in a hotel/guest house etc. you can ask to be seen at any GP practice that covers that area.

If we are closed, please call NHS 111 for advice and assistance.

Supplementary Questions

I am not ordinarily a resident in the UK

I am not ordinarily a resident in the UK

Ordinarily Resident

Anybody in England can register with a GP practice and receive free medical care from that practice.

However, if you are not ‘ordinarily resident’ in the UK you may have to pay for NHS treatment outside of the GP practice. Being ordinarily resident broadly means living lawfully in the UK on a properly settled basis for the time being. In most cases, nationals of countries outside the European Economic Area must also have the status of ‘indefinite leave to remain’ in the UK.

Some services, such as diagnostic tests of suspected infectious diseases and any treatment of those diseases are free of charge to all people, while some groups who are not ordinarily resident here are exempt from all treatment charges.

More information on ordinary residence, exemptions and paying for NHS services can be found in the Visitor and Migrant patient leaflet, available from your GP practice. Alternatively for more information go to www.nhs.uk/visitingengland.

You may be asked to provide proof of entitlement in order to receive free NHS treatment outside of the GP practice, otherwise you may be charged for your treatment. Even if you have to pay for a service, you will always be provided with any immediately necessary or urgent treatment, regardless of advance payment.

The information you give on this form will be used to assist in identifying your chargeable status, and may be shared, including with NHS secondary care organisations (e.g. hospitals) and NHS Digital, for the purposes of validation, invoicing and cost recovery. You may be contacted on behalf of the NHS to confirm any details you have provided.

Please select one of the following statements:

I understand that I may need to pay for NHS treatment outside of the GP practice

I understand I have a valid exemption from paying for NHS treatment outside of the GP practice. This includes for example, an EHIC, or payment of the Immigration Health Charge (“the Surcharge”), when accompanied by a valid visa. I can provide documents to support this when requested

I do not know my chargeable status

I declare that the information I give on this form is correct and complete. I understand that if it is not correct, appropriate
action may be taken against me.

A parent/guardian should complete the form on behalf of a child under 16.
