Welcome to Derby Road Health Centre

Dear Patients,

In line with the Government’s announcement, the NHS is aiming to offer every adult the chance to book a COVID-19 booster vaccine.

 If you are eligible for your booster vaccination, please contact the practice. Alternatively you can visit nhs.uk/covid-vaccine or call 119 to arrange your appointment. 

 If you need to register yourself or someone you care for as housebound to make sure they receive their booster jab.

 If you have Covid-19 symptoms and want to book in for a test, please visit: https://www.gov.uk/get-coronavirus-test.

A MESSAGE FOR ALL PATIENTS

ACCESSING YOUR GP SERVICES

• Your NHS services have a range of measures in place to keep you safe from COVID- 19 including regular cleaning of patient areas and social distancing. Please ensure you wear a face covering to your appointment.
• Face-to-face appointments are available to all patients where there is a clinical need. You will be asked to first discuss your conditions over the phone or online with a member of the healthcare team to assess what would be most appropriate for you and which practice member would best provide it.
• We are also offering telephone consultations, these can be convenient and flexible ways to receive healthcare. Where patients need to be seen by a health professional face-to-face, this will be arranged. If you have a preference about how to access care you can discuss it with your practice.
• General practice continues to offer care based on clinical need.
• General practice continues to offer cervical smears and childhood immunisations.
• Your practice is delighted to be undertaking the largest vaccination programme in the history of the NHS. They are balancing this programme with continuing to be open and managing your other clinical needs. Please do be reassured that if you need medical attention, your practice is here for you and will determine how to best support you, based on your symptoms.
• Please be polite and respectful, your GP and practice team are available and working hard to support you, your family and friends health and care needs.
• General practices across the country are continuing to experience difficulties with staff shortages due to the pandemic and recruitment challenges, please bare this in mind when you contact the practice.
• Visit the local pharmacy for clinical advice on minor health concerns 

Our staff are working extremely hard to provide services and care and we would like to thank our patients for your continued support.
