We will be holding our main Flu and autumn Covid booster vaccination clinics at Thorngrove school, Highclere, on Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th October.
We plan to start inviting eligible patients to book their vaccinations towards the end of September. Invitations will be sent out in batches over a number of days so please do not worry if you have not been contacted by the 1st of October. We anticipate that all eligible patients will have received their invitation by Mon 5th October.
Where the Practice holds a mobile telephone number or email address for you, your invitation will contain a link to allow you to book your appointment without the need to telephone the Practice. If you have received your invitation from the Practice and you find that you are unable to book your appointment via the booking link, then you can of course telephone your surgery to book your appointment. Our telephones will be very busy over this period so please do not call to book your vaccination appointment until you have been invited to do so.
When using the booking link please scroll right down the appointment page to view all of the available appointments and select the appointment time that best meets your needs. The booking link will show appointments under the names of 4 different clinicians therefore, if you are a couple wanting to book appointments at similar times, for example at 9am, then you might find one available 9am appointment with one clinician and further down the page another 9am appointment available with one of the other clinicians.
Patients that do not have a mobile telephone number or email address held on our records will be sent a letter inviting them to contact the surgery to book their vaccinations.
We will be holding a limited number of clinics at both surgeries to accommodate patients that are unable to attend the sessions on the 17th and 18th October. However, the dates, times and locations of these clinics will not be known until after the mass weekend vaccination sessions have taken place. Invitations will be sent out to eligible patients that did not attend the clinics on the 17th and 18th October.
Our clinicians will visit Housebound and Care Home residents to provide flu and Covid vaccinations where appropriate.
