Primary Care Hub
Dear patients,
In our commitment to improving access to urgent care while preserving continuity for those who need it most, we are pleased to inform you about a new initiative. Working with colleagues from across the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Integrated Care Board, we have established a Primary Care Hub at our Carlyon Road Health Hub site.
Selected patients may be asked to attend the Primary Care Hub by our reception team. This clinic is additional capacity that has been established to ensure we can cope with seasonal demand and support our wider NHS. We hope this extra capacity will also allow extra focus to support our most unwell, frail, and vulnerable patients.
It's still important that you contact the surgery in the usual way, following which you will be triaged and may be asked to come to the Primary Care Hub at Carlyon Road Health Hub. This is not a walk-in clinic; you need an appointment to be seen.
Thank you for entrusting us with your healthcare needs. We remain dedicated to providing you with excellent care and service.
Warm regards,
The St Austell Healthcare Team

Pharmacy First
Visit your local pharmacy for help with seven minor conditions which used to require a GP appointment.
As experts in medicines and managing minor illnesses, pharmacists have been backed by Government and the NHS to provide a new ‘Pharmacy First’ service.
The scheme has just started, and more pharmacies are expected to join soon. Locally, both Day Lewis pharmacies and ASDA pharmacy in St Austell, and the Boots pharmacy in Mevagissey are offering this service.
You can book an appointment online for Day Lewis in St Austell: www.daylewis.co.uk/pharmacy-first/
And walk-in without an appointment for Boots in Mevagissey: www.boots.com/healthhub/a-z-services/pharmacy-first
You can walk-in without an appointment at ASDA pharmacy in St Austell.
This scheme will support people in certain age groups seeking help for sore throats, earache in children, sinusitis, infected insect bites, impetigo, shingles, and urinary tract infections in women.
Under the new service pharmacists can provide advice and, if clinically necessary, will offer an NHS medicine to treat it (NHS prescription charge apply if you normally pay for medicines supplied on prescription). Should the pharmacy team be unable to help, you will be directed to your GP surgery or A&E as appropriate.
