COVID VACCINATIONS

COVID VACCINATION FOR OUR PATIENTS

PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT THE PRACTICE REGARDING YOUR COVID VACCINATION.

Patients will be invited for Covid Vaccinations, as the vaccines become available. Patients will then be vaccinated according to priority schedule set out by the government. The priority schedule can be viewed by clicking the links below.

Flu Vaccination 2020:
We are now booking appointments for eligible patients in 2020 flu clinics - please follow these instructions when attending

Do not attend if you or any members of your household have symptoms of coronavirus, or if you have been told to isolate.

Attend on your own unless you need help in mobilising. 

Do not arrive early or late for your appointment time; we have allocated a strict arrival time of patients to ensure that people are queueing for the minimum amount of time and social distancing is maintained

Please wear a face covering. 

Wear clothing which makes it easy to expose your upper arm.

Please follow the instructions of the queue marshals who are supervising the patient flow – they are there for your safety.

Please note that people in the 50-64-year old age group will not be vaccinated until December, providing there is sufficient vaccine, and no appointments will be offered for this age group until then. This is to ensure that those who are most at risk are vaccinated first.  If you are 50-64 and you are in one of the other groups which is eligible for the flu vaccination, for example you have a health condition which puts you at risk from the flu, you will be invited earlier.

Our Practice’s main objective is ensuring that our patients receive the optimum level of care available. Our Practice Mission Statement is as follows:-

Our wish is to accommodate the needs of our patients while promoting self-reliance. There is an emphasis on the prevention of illness while maintaining the traditional values of family medicine. We hope to provide a friendly personalised service.

We are a training practice for the Teesside branch of the Northern Deanery of the University of Newcastle which means you may see a different GP registrar in the surgery every 6 months. Training is carried out by Dr Fish. Dr Fish gives valuable tuition to these fully qualified doctors who are gaining experience in a general practice setting.
