Update for Old Aberdeen Medical Practice Patients

Tue 12 Jan 2021

We recently wrote to all patients of Old Aberdeen Medical Practice explaining that there had been
recent GP resignations at the practice. We also explained our plans for making sure you continue to
be able to be seen for your health needs at Old Aberdeen Medical Practice.

The next step in that plan was to source additional clinical cover for the practice. We advertised the
opportunity to all GP Practices in Grampian.

We have now made a “service level agreement” (a type of legal arrangement) with the partners of
Denburn Medical Practice (Denburn). Denburn will work with the remaining practice staff and ACHSCP
to continue to deliver your medical services.

Your practice will continue to be managed by ACHSCP as a part of NHS Grampian at this time. Denburn
will help to provide and organise the day-to-day services.

This will start on 01/02/2021. This will last for six months whilst a procurement process is completed
in line with the 2C Remodelling Project (see the briefing below for more details)

ACHSCP will now continue to progress the procurement process to find suitable parties (GPs) to run the practices – together, individually or in combinations – and to work with all staff to continue to improve our health care services.

How does this affect me?
The building at Old Aberdeen Medical Practice will not close and you will continue to contact the
practice as normal.

There will be new GPs working at the practice, however the admin and nursing staff will remain the
same.

Please be assured you will continue to receive a medical service from Old Aberdeen Medical Practice
team.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your patience and support during this time
of transition.
