Registering Children
Children under 16 need to be registered by their parent or guardian. This usually means filling in a separate form. You may also be asked to provide a form of ID to prove that you’re their parent or guardian.
If you have a personal child health record (red book) from the birth of your child, it will help to provide this.
Registering for someone you care for under the Mental Capacity Act
If someone over 16 is unable to register because they cannot make decisions about their care, registration can be done by:
- A relative
- The main carer
- A lasting power of attorney
- A person appointed by a court under the Mental Capacity Act
We serve around 7,200 patients all across Weardale. Our main surgery is in Stanhope – with branch surgeries in Wolsingham and St John’s Chapel.
