If you would like to consent for someone else to be able to access your medical record (by proxy) please indicate on the form below.
This form can only be completed by patients with the capacity to give consent. This form must be completed and signed by the patient giving permission for access to their record. Any incorrectly completed forms will not be processed.
Linked profiles in your NHS account
Once proxy access is set up, you can access the other person’s profile in your NHS account, using the NHS App or website.
The NHS website has information about using linked profiles to access services for someone else.

Allowing others to speak on your behalf
Due to patient confidentiality, we are unable to discuss any aspect of a patient’s medical record with anybody other than the patient, without their express consent, except for someone holding a Health and Welfare Power of Attorney, or the parent of a young child.
If you would like to consent for someone else to be able to discuss your medical records with practice staff please complete and return the Allowing Others to Speak on Your Behalf form.
