Merger Letter

Posted by: ethan - Posted on:

Dear Patient,

Following on from our previous communication we are writing to update you with further details about the merger of our GP practices.

The merger between Morley Health Centre and the Dekeyser Group Practice has been approved by NHS England to take place on 1 April 2023. Our clinical systems will merge over the course of the evening on Tuesday 18  April 2023

We would like to make you aware of the following important information during this period of transition:

  • In order to allow the merge of the two systems the Dekeyser Group Practice at Fountain Medical Centre will  be closed on Tuesday 18 April from 4:30 pm and will reopen as normal from Wednesday 19 April 2023 at 8:00am.  This is to allow both clinical systems to merge.
  • Surgeries will run as normal on Tuesday 18 April 2023 from 8:00am – 4:30pm.
  • We expect our merged systems to be up and running on Wednesday 19 April 2023 at 8:00am.
  • Access to Online Consultations (eConsult) may also not be available from 4:30pm on Tuesday 18 April 2023 to allow sufficient time to process requests prior to merging.  
  • Patient access to S1 online may  be unavailable from Tuesday 18 April 2023 to Wednesday 19  April 2023.

We ask that you please bear with us during this transition but have produced a brief Frequently Asked Questions document below, which will hopefully answer many of your questions.

Yours sincerely
