Chaperone Policy – Ashwell Medical Centre
Ashwell Medical Centre is committed to safeguarding your privacy, dignity, and personal wellbeing at all times. We fully respect individual religious and cultural beliefs, particularly in situations where an intimate examination may be clinically indicated.
Intimate examinations will only be carried out with your explicit and informed consent. You will always be offered the presence of a chaperone during any such examination, and this option will be clearly explained to you beforehand.
You may request a chaperone at any point when booking an appointment, upon arrival at reception, or during your consultation. All requests will be handled promptly, respectfully, and sensitively by our staff.
Ashwell Medical Centre is dedicated to ensuring that all patients feel safe, respected, and supported throughout their care. All examinations and procedures are conducted in accordance with established clinical, ethical, and professional standards.
