Patient Online Services

Information about Online Access

At Stepping Stone Practice, we are trying to get as many patients using online facilities as possible. We would encourage you to use online facilities to order repeat prescriptions and manage appointments where you can. 

We have two options for patients to access online information and GP services:

The NHS APP – This is an App used with a smartphone or tablet. There is no need to contact us to register. Set up is quick and simple and most people have their access approved withing 2 hours and it doesn’t need to involve the practice – visit https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-app/ to find out more and get set up.

A patient guide to help you with signing up for and using the NHS App can be viewed here: The NHS App – a patient guide.

SystmOnline / Airmid– This is a website and smartphone or tablet App. This is set up using your email address and a generated password through the practice – to use this system please complete the form below.
