🏡 Going Home from Hospital: What You Need to Know

Research shows that once you’ve had the care you need in hospital, going home can help you recover faster.

If extra support is needed, we’ll arrange help at home or nearby to keep you on track.

To get ready for going home, don’t hesitate to ask your healthcare team these important questions:
• What is wrong with me?
• What will happen next?
• What can I do to help myself get better?
• When am I likely to go home?

By working with your doctors and nurses, you can help speed up your recovery and feel more confident about leaving hospital.

Flu Vaccinations

Towards the end of August, we will start to send text messages to patients who are eligible for a flu vaccination this year.

The text message will contain a booking link which will allow eligible patients to book into an appointment of their choice. Patients who are eligible for a COVID booster vaccination will also be offered this at the same appointment. Please be aware the eligibility criteria for the COVID booster has changed this year, so some patients who have received it previously may no longer be eligible. Also, we are unable to offer separate appointments for each vaccination.

Patients who do not wish to book their appointment online will be able to phone the surgery as in previous years. We will be updating our phone system to include an extra option exclusively for patients wishing to book their flu vaccination.

PLEASE DO NOT CALL YET AS THE CLINICS ARE NOT OPEN TO BOOK

The clinic will be held on Sunday 5th October

If you are eligible but unable to attend the above clinic, we will be running some small clinics during the week later in the flu season, but numbers will be limited so please try to attend on 5th October if you can.

We are aware flu vaccinations are available elsewhere, but we would like to ask you to support your NHS and General Practice and have your vaccination at the surgery. This ensures your records remain complete and also allows us to undertake or recommend any other relevant health checks.

🚨 When Should You Go to A&E?
Accidents and emergencies happen – but do you know when it’s really the right time to go to A&E?

Going too early or for non-urgent issues can delay care for those in serious need. On the other hand, waiting too long can put your health at risk.
