Before you attend our surgery for your appointment, have you had any of these symptoms develop since you last contacted us?
- A high temperature (fever)
- A new continuous cough
- A loss of smell or taste (anosmia)
If you have any of these symptoms, please do not attend the surgery.
Please go into self-isolation for 10 days from the onset of symptoms and let us know you will not be attending your appointment. You should also visit www.111.wales.nhs.uk/COVID19 for further information.
If your symptoms worsen during home isolation, you should call 111. Do not delay calling 111 if you develop any new worsening symptoms. For a life threatening emergency dial 999.
If you live with others and you are the first in the household to have symptoms of coronavirus, then you must stay at home for 10 days, but all other household members that remain well must stay at home and not leave the house for 14 days. The 14 day period starts from the day when the first person in the household became ill. If a household member develops symptoms during this period then they should self-isolate for 10 days from the first day of onset of their symptoms.
You do not need to stay at home if you just have a cough after 10 days. A cough can last for several weeks after the infection has gone.
