We are open and you are safe.
Yes, Smales Farm is open and it is safe for you to come and see us.
We are business as usual, open 24 hours, 7 days a week, albeit with a few extra precautions in place for your safety and ours.
First you'll note our rather large tent outside our front doors. Here you will be screened by a clinician who will assess if it is safe for you to enter our premises or not.
You may taken into a room straight away, popped in our waiting room which has been given a social distancing makeover, or even asked to return to your car.
You'll spot our receptionists are protected behind perspex screens and are taking patient details by phone rather than face to face contact.
As an added protection we are not taking any cash or cheque payments at the moment. Please note that we have PayWave payments available on our machines or we can invoice to be paid online.
So please if you find yourself in need of urgent medical or accident care, pop in and see us at Smales Farm.
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
