FLU CAMPAIGN
The flu season is fast approaching us once more and it is our aim to vaccinate as many of our over 65's and patients with conditions that make them more vulnerable to serious illness if they contract the flu virus, as possible. This year this will also include ladies who are pregnant.
All those patients will receive an invitation to attend at one of the following sessions.
DATE SURGERY TIME Saturday 8th October Kings Langley 8.30 > 11.30 Saturday 15th October Kings Langley 8.30 > 11.30 Saturday 22nd October Bovingdon 8.30 > 11.30 Saturday 29th October Kings Langley 8.30 > 11.30 Friday 4th November Bovingdon 2.00 > 5.00 Please do expect that there may be a queue, particularly when the doors first open, but we do our best to ensure no-one waits too long. We have at least 3 or 4 Nurses and Doctors vaccinating at each session to avoid any extended delay but if you are not able to stand for any length of time please arrive later in the session when there is likely to be no queue at all.
From your 65th birthday you may also be offered a Pneumococcal vaccination, provided you have not already been vaccinated. This is a once only vaccination to protect you against pneumococcal infection, which can cause diseases such as pneumonia, septicaemia or meningitis.
If you do not wish to have the flu vaccine please be kind enough to complete the tear-off slip at the bottom of the invitation return it to the surgery to avoid us contacting you again.
If you wish to register with this practice, please go to the most convenient surgery (Kings Langley or Bovingdon) and request a registration pack. You will be asked to complete a registration form and new patient questionnaire. We ask that all new patients attend a new patient appointment with Nurse in order that we can perform simple health checks and obtain some current information about your health status, prior to receiving your medical records from your previous GP.
The Practice welcomes patients for registration regardless of disability or medical condition, age, appearance, race, gender, social class, religion or sexual orientation.
The Practice requires a registration form (GMS1) to be completed and signed for each new patient, to provide details of name, address, date of birth, previous address and doctor, and National Health Number (if known). You may also register as a temporary resident (GMS3) whilst working or visiting in the area provided this involves an overnight stay. Please indicate the length of your intended stay as either less than or greater than 15 days. These forms can be obtained from the surgery or by downloading and printing the form. The GMS1 form must be signed by the patient or patients representative and returned to the surgery.
