Surgery Newsflash January 2021

Covid Update

We are progressing with the vaccine programme and will be informing patients when their second doses are due.
Please check the government website (gov.uk) for advice about coronavirus and vaccines before considering contacting the surgery as we are experiencing a large volume of calls.
The group 6 cohort has different criteria to the flu vaccine category group, and there is a new shielding group.

Equipment

If you have been loaned a pulse oximeter for covid symptom monitoring, please return them to the surgery as soon as you are able.
We would like to thank Mrs Glynis Snowden who organised a collection for a wreath in memory of Captain Sir Tom, which is in place on the war memorial; she has very kindly donated the surplus monies to the surgery.
We would also like to thank the Surgery Friends for recent donations of equipment items.
Your kind and positive feedback continues to encourage us.

Pandemic

If you are struggling with the pandemic we have additional Adult and Child social prescriber link workers and our Frailty Matron, who we can refer to for help with difficulties experienced at present.
