COVID 19
HANDWASHING IS IMPORTANT – by regularly washing your hands you reduce your risk. Please maintain social distancing of 2 metres.
FACE MASKS AND COVERINGS FOR ATTENDING THE PRACTICE
In response to the UK Governments announcement on covid restrictions.
Please note that current guidance for health and social care settings will not change until at least April 2022. So, until further notice, please continue to:
- wear your mask in the surgery
- keep distance when in the surgery
- arrive no longer than five minutes before your appointment time
- avoid attending for routine care when you have covid
- tell us if you have covid symptoms or are covid positive when you have an appointment
That way we can keep all patients safe - including those who cannot be vaccinated or whose immune systems are compromised/weak.
Prescriptions
During the coronavirus pandemic we are changing the way we take prescription requests. We ask that any patient, who is able, signs up for online access to order prescriptions, enabling patients to order at a time that is convenient for them. Alternatively prescriptions can be ordered via the telephone between the hours of 10am and 12noon, Monday-Friday.
