Sharps Bins
Surgeries can no longer issue new sharps bins, or accept filled ones. Any patients requiring sharps bins for the safe disposal of needles and injections, will be required to sign-up to a Buckinghamshire Council service for both the provision of new sharps bins and the collection of filled ones. This can be arranged through the surgery, please submit a request to sign-up for the delivery/collection service through the eConsult portal on our home page.
Batteries
We hold spare hearing aid batteries for the convenience of our registered patients.
Patient registered elsewhere will need to acquire batteries from the audiology department at Amersham Hospital, or their own GP surgery.
We cannot accept used batteries as these are regarded as Hazardous Waste.
Please dispose of them safely; such as the recycling centre or your local supermarket, many stores have battery collection bins, please check next time you are in town.
