If you did not attend (DNA) an appointment in any of the GIC Services (Core, Counselling Psychology, Speech and Language Therapy, Endocrine) then your case will be reviewed to ascertain the next steps.
- This will result in you being discharged from the service with an understanding that if your circumstances should change and you wish to engage with the services at the GIC, you can ask your for a re-referral from your GP. You will not have to wait on the original waiting list, but will be treated as a patient waiting for their next appointment.
- If you DNA two consecutive appointments, you will be discharged from services with an understanding that if you wish to engage with services in the future, you can ask for a re-referral by your GP and your clinical file will be reviewed regarding whether it is appropriate for you to return to the Service.
All DNA and Discharge correspondence will be copied to the GP so they are aware of circumstances.
