How Accurx Patient Triage works

This video is relevant because Brayford Medical Practice uses Accurx for patient triage. Use it to understand the general idea, then follow Brayford’s own instructions for submitting your request.

This is an Accurx patient-facing video, not a Brayford-specific NHS instruction. Official Brayford Medical Practice pages remain the final source for local appointment rules.

Impetigo Aged 1 year and over You may not need GP contact first.
Infected insect bites Aged 1 year and over Pharmacy First may be suitable.
Shingles Aged 18 years and over Early treatment can matter, so do not delay.
Sinusitis Aged 12 years and over Pharmacy may be the first practical route.
