Accessing Someone Else’s Information (Proxy Access)

As a parent, family member or carer, you may be able to access services for someone else. We call this having proxy access. We can set this up for you if you are both registered with us.

To requests proxy access:

• submit an online consultation form
• visit the surgery from 10am to 6pm

You will need to show us identification before we can link profiles in your NHS account.

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.
