On-site private GP and nursing services
We can provide GP and nursing services at your place of business, giving your employees the chance to speak to a GP or nurse about any health concerns they may have. Not only is this convenient, it’ll also provide your employees with reassurance and can boost productivity by supporting a healthier and happier workforce.
Anytime HealthLine
Because it’s reassuring to know you can talk to a medical professional over the phone as soon as you feel unwell, we have a team on call 24/7.
Your employees will be able to access our Bupa Anytime HealthLine, any time of day or night, 365 days a year. They’ll get straight through to a qualified nurse who can give them the information and advice they need. If you upgrade this service, a GP call back can also be arranged by the nurse normally within two hours.
We’ve conducted a detailed risk assessment on all aspects of our clinics offering, including the properties, tasks performed, needs of our employees and customers, and coronavirus (COVID-19). This has involved clinical teams, property teams, quality and health and safety. The resulting control measures mean that we’re able to protect our employees and customers to the highest level and provide the best services possible.
To make sure we’re delivering our services in the safest way and limiting the number of people and length of time they spend inside our centres, we’ve made some temporary changes.
Consulting by webchat and video – using technology in this way for some of our services will help us to reduce face-to-face contact. In the event that you or your employees wish to utilise webchat or video conferencing (using Vidyo, Microsoft Skype or Microsoft Teams), please note the following terms and conditions (PDF, 1MB) will apply.
Ear, nose and throat examinations (ENT), lung function tests and hearing tests – we currently consider ENT examinations and lung functions tests too high risk for us to undertake. There are also cleaning limitations with the hearing test booths so we will not be offering these within any of our health assessment range at this time.
