Covid 19 Vaccination
Covid Vaccination update - Currently we are working on cohort 1-9. We are aware that some patients will be due their 2nd COVID vaccination, this is due around 11weeks after the first dose. We will contact you to book the 2nd vaccine. Please do not contact us regarding 2nd vaccines unless 11 weeks have passed already. If you are under 50 you will need to ring 119 or visit the nhs website to book your vaccine once you have received your letter from the NHS. We as a practice are not vaccinating anyone under 50 unless they have a medical condition.
You can support your local NHS by following this advice:
Do not contact your practice to seek a vaccine, the NHS will contact you when it is your turn. Please note we would NEVER ask for your bank details to confirm your indentity. Please be aware of scams!
Please be understanding that we are working as hard as possible to deliver the vaccine, but the speed of the local rollout does depend upon the supplies of the vaccine we receive.
Please understand that while we want to protect as many people as we can, not everyone will be a suitable candidate for the vaccine for example women who are pregnant, children and people with certain medical conditions or those at risk of serious allergic reactions.
If you are contacted about getting vaccinated, please attend your appointments which may not be at the surgery.
Finally, please help the NHS by following the rules to stop the spread of coronavirus.
If you receive a text message to book your vaccine from Kat with a mobile number ending 244, please note this is NOT a scam.
Kat is a long-standing member of our team who is working really hard to contact everybody who is eligible to book their vaccine appointment. We are using a mobile for this purpose to keep the surgery lines free for patients who may need to contact us.
Thank you for your support with the vaccination programme
