Important Notice
If you’re off work sick for 7 days or less, your employer should not ask for medical evidence that you’ve been ill – you do not need to complete this form. Instead they can ask you to confirm that you’ve been ill by filling in a form when you return to work. This is called self-certification.
If you have been off work sick for 7 days or more, complete the process below.
Requesting A Sick Note Using Patient Triage
To request a fit (sick) note from the practice, you would need to submit a request by clicking the link to Patient Triage.
Once you enter the Patient Triage portal navigate to the ‘Admin query’ tab. You will need to confirm a medical disclaimer.
After completing the medical disclaimer confirming this is not an emergency, you will have the following options available to you. Click on the ‘Fit (sick) note’ button.
Complete The Fit (Sick) Note Request Form
Complete the Fit (sick) note form and then continue to the next page where you will need to confirm who the request is for.
Complete the personal details for the patient you are requesting the note for and confirm how you would like to be contacted. Once you have completed this form and the personal details you will have a confirmation page that summarises all the information you entered. Once you are satisfied with the information you can submit your request.
