Covid-19 Information

 

How to access your Covid-19 vaccination status

You can access your COVID-19 vaccination status through the free NHS App or the NHS website from 17 May. You can access the app through mobile devices such as a smartphone or by tablet. Proof of your COVID-19 vaccination status will be shown within the NHS App. We recommend that you register with the app before booking international travel.

If you do not have access to a smartphone and know that the country you are travelling to requires COVID-19 vaccination status, you can call the NHS helpline on 119 (from 17 May) and ask for a letter to be posted to you. This must be at least 5 days after you’ve completed your course of the vaccine. We expect the letter to take up to 5 days to reach you.

Covid-19 Vaccinations – The NHS will contact you

The NHS is currently offering the COVID-19 vaccine to people most at risk from coronavirus. You will be contacted when it’s your turn. It’s important not to contact the Practice about the vaccine before then 👉 nhs.uk/CovidVaccine

Please wear a face covering

Patients who come in to the practice should wear a face covering to protect themselves & our staff.  We ask that you do not attend for your appointment more than 5 minutes early, as we are limited to the number of people we can have in the waiting room at any one time.  Please come  alone to your appointment if possible.
