When We Are Closed
The practice’s emergency out-of-hours calls (including Saturday mornings) are covered by Integrated Care 24 (IC24). IC24 is a highly efficient and professional organisation administering a
co-operative of local GPs.
If urgent medical attention is needed when the surgery is closed, please ring the surgery number 01424 847575 and you will hear a recorded message giving you the option to be put through to the out-of-hours emergency service.
For patient safety all calls to the service are recorded.
In the unlikely event that you have difficulty contacting the Out of Hours service, in a real emergency, you are advised to dial 999 for an ambulance. Alternatively dial 111.
Walk-in Centres
Walk in clinics are now available to all patients at the Station Plaza Health Centre, Hastings and the Eastbourne Station Health Centre. The centres are open from 08:00 to 20:00 365 days a year.
Out-of-hours services are generally busy so please think carefully before asking to see a doctor and only do so if you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.
In a genuine emergency you should call 999. Chest pains and / or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.
