2021/22 Winter Vaccines at ADSHALL ROAD MEDICAL PRACTICE

 Do not call us about the flu or COVID-19 booster vaccine. Stockport GP practices are offering vaccinations in different ways so that everyone who is eligible can be offered a vaccination. This is dependent upon a variety of factors including practice resources and vaccine availability.

 Read the information below to find out how you can get your flu or COVID-19 booster vaccine.

 Flu Vaccine: The flu vaccine is a safe and effective vaccine. It's offered every year on the NHS to help protect people at risk of getting seriously ill from flu.

 We will contact you directly by letter, phone or text when it is your turn to come for your flu vaccine.

 COVID-19 Booster Vaccine: The COVID-19 booster vaccine dose, which is available six months after the second dose, helps improve the protection you have from your first two doses of the vaccine. It helps give you longer-term protection against getting seriously ill from COVID-19. Find out more about the COVID-19 booster vaccine and who can get it.

You will need to book your COVID-19 booster on the National Booking Service website or by calling 119, seven days a week, between 7am and 11pm. You can also look for a walk-in COVID-19 vaccination site convenient to you.

We will contact you directly by letter, phone or text when it is your turn to come for the COVID-19 booster vaccine. Until then you don’t need to do anything, but you should continue to follow the hands, face, space guidance, which will still save lives and reduce the risk of infection.

If you don’t want to wait for us to contact you, visit the National Booking Service website or call the National Booking Service on 119, seven days a week, between 7am and 11pm. You can also look for a walk-in COVID-19 vaccination site convenient to you.

COVID-19 Vaccine First and Second Dose: If you haven’t had a first or second dose yet, it’s not too late. Visit the National Booking Service website or call 119 to book yours.

The coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccines are safe and effective. They give you the best protection against COVID-19. It is important you have the vaccine, even if you have had COVID-19 or think you have had the virus, because it will make your immune system stronger and reduce the risk of spreading the virus or having COVID-19 symptoms again.

Pausing Elective Care in Greater Manchester (4/1/22)

Hospitals in Greater Manchester have made the difficult decision to pause some non-urgent surgery and appointments due to the rising impact of COVID-19.

Patients who will be affected by this will be contacted by the hospital as soon as possible.

If you are not contacted by the hospital, please assume your treatment is continuing as planned. There is no need to contact the hospital or your GP practice for this information.

We understand how disappointing this will be for patients who have appointments or procedures affected, especially those who have already waited for some time, and we know people will be worried.

This is a temporary measure, and the aim is to impact the fewest number of patients. The situation will be reviewed on a regular basis so that procedures can resume as soon as possible.

Urgent treatments and cancer operations will continue to be prioritised and hospitals will continue to work together across Greater Manchester to care for patients so that everyone who needs urgent care and treatment, gets it.

Anyone waiting for treatment can find advice and support on the Greater Manchester While You Wait website (whileyouwait.org.uk). Here you will find information and advice on how to manage your physical and mental wellbeing while you wait.

This is a difficult decision and one that has not been taken lightly, but we’ve done it so we can keep people safe, can maintain the very best infection control measures, can make sure we deploy staff to where they’re needed most and can keep looking after people who need urgent and emergency care, including cancer treatment.

We would urge anyone with health concerns to continue to come forward for help and treatment in the usual way, using their local emergency department only for serious illnesses or injuries. A reminder that NHS 111 can help if you have an urgent medical problem and aren’t sure what to do. Call 111 or visit 111.nhs.uk.
