VACCINATION SCHEDULE

Chronic Disease Management

The Doctors and Practice Nurses regularly monitor patients with chronic conditions such as diabetes, Asthma, COPD and coronary heart disease.
You may be asked to come to the surgery for medication reviews, blood pressure checks or blood tests. We would ask you to co-operate with these requests as we want to be able to offer you the best possible care.

Combined Tetanus and Diphtheria Vaccinations

Five doses of the above vaccine will cover you for life unless a new major injury is sustained 10 or more years after your last vaccination. Please ask at the reception desk if you are not sure whether you need a booster dose. If our staff cannot help you they will ask a member of the nursing staff for their advice.

All Doctors are happy to give Family Planning Advice. 

Flu Vaccinations

Around September or October each year we encourage patients with chronic medical conditions e.g. heart disease, diabetes, asthma and those who are over 65 to have a flu vaccination.
