Sick (fit) notes

If you’ve been off sick for more than 7 days

Sick notes can be requested using our online system under ‘admin request’.

  • Use our online system: Accurx

If you cannot order online, please call the Practice and we will be happy to help you over the telephone.

If you’ve been off sick for 7 days or less

If you’re off work sick for 7 days or less, your employer should not ask for medical evidence that you’ve been ill. Instead, they can ask you to confirm that you’ve been ill. You can do this by filling in a form yourself when you return to work. We call this self-certification.
