Patients of The Family Medical Centre in Carlton are being advised of two upcoming closures and reminded to manually track their appointments. The practice, located on Carlton Road, will close for staff training on Tuesday 19 May 2026 at 12:15pm and reopen on Wednesday 20 May 2026 at 8:00am. Additionally, the centre will be closed on Monday 25 May 2026 for the Late May Bank Holiday, with normal services resuming on Tuesday 26 May 2026 at 8:00am.

During both closure periods, the practice’s booking system will be unavailable. Because the facility’s text message reminder service is currently offline, staff are asking all patients to carefully note their appointment details to avoid missing scheduled visits.

The NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board is also encouraging patients to order any necessary repeat prescriptions well in advance of the bank holiday weekend. For those who require urgent medical attention while the practice is closed, officials advise calling NHS 111, while anyone facing a medical emergency should dial 999.

The surgery, which holds an ‘Outstanding’ rating from the Care Quality Commission, remains a primary healthcare provider for the local Carlton community.
