Patient Notice – Did Not Attend (DNA)
Posted on:
As you are all aware, currently the demands on the NHS are constantly increasing.
However, the NHS resources are significantly being wasted as well. One of the NHS resource wastage is by the patients booking the appointments and not turning up.
To reduce the wastage and to increase the awareness, we are trying to monitor the number of appointments which go unattended.
Non-urgent advice: The number of appointments that were not attended in February 2025 is 264
We want to regretfully announce that 43 patients did not turn up for Saturday phlebotomy appointment in the month of February despite text reminder sent to them on Friday before.
