Temporary Residents

If you are ill whilst away from home on holiday or on business and need to receive treatment for a medical condition, you can register as a temporary patient with a practice for up to three months. This will allow you to be on the practice list and still remain a patient of your usual GP.  Simply contact a local practice for advice about this.  Please be aware that you cannot register as a temporary patient anywhere within reasonable distance of your own practice, and that practices are not obliged to accept you on to their list.

Temporary registration expires after 3 months, at which point you will have to reapply or register permanently with that practice.

If you have run out of medication whilst away from home, and are registered with a Scottish GP practice, you can attend any community pharmacy who will be able to help you without the need to be seen by a GP.
