Hamstreet Surgery

To protect both our vulnerable patients and staff, we will continue to request that all patients wear a face mask, use hand sanitiser and maintain social distancing when visiting the surgery from the 19^th July. 

Please be aware that we are unable to arrange a covid booster vaccination appointment for you at this current time.  Eligible patients will receive a text message or a phone call directly from the surgery to book the appointment once we have confirmed vaccine delivery dates.  We are grateful for your patience and request that you do not telephone or visit the surgery to ask about Covid boosters – we will contact you.

The NHS is planning for the flu vaccination programme as usual for this autumn, so please keep a look out on the practice website for updates.

IMPORTANT NOTICE - DELAY OF FLU VACCINE DELIVERY

All GP surgeries & pharmacies have been informed that, due to circumstances beyond our control, scheduled vaccine deliveries have been delayed. Please only contact us to make an appointment if you have received an invite from the surgery. If your appointment is affected we will contact you to cancel your existing appointment and reschedule once stock has been delivered. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Flu and COVID-19 viruses have the potential to increase pressures faced by the NHS this winter, particularly if infection waves from both viruses coincide. It’s therefore important that you get vaccinated if you are eligible. As a temporary measure this year flu vaccinations will also be extended to include those from years 7 to year 11 in secondary school and all those aged 50 and over.
