Zero Tolerance Policy

A zero-tolerance policy towards violent, threatening, and abusive behaviour is now in place throughout the NHS.

A zero-tolerance policy towards violent, threatening, and abusive behaviour is now in place throughout the NHS. The doctors, nurses and staff in this practice have the right to do their work in an environment free from violent, threatening, or abusive behaviour and everything will be done to protect that right.

At no time will any such behaviour be tolerated in this practice. If you do not respect the rights of our staff and patients, we may choose to inform the police and you may be removed from our medical list.

Abuse will not be tolerated, and you will receive a letter from the practice regarding your behaviour and our zero-tolerance policy. If this continues to happen, you may be removed from the practice.
