🎉 BEVERLEY MCALEESE, 40 YEARS SERVICE 🎉

1st November 1985 the GPs employed a very young Beverley Graham to work as a medical receptionist at Ballymoney Family Practice. 📞

Yesterday we opened our new reception area but what Beverley didn’t know (and we still don’t know how we all kept it a secret 🤫) was that we were celebrating her remarkable milestone as well. She was very surprised; she had the honour of cutting the ribbon 🎀 and there’s a special plaque on the wall to mark her years of service and dedication. 🖼️

She did say she’s well settled in her job 😂 (we’d like to hope so), that it’s a great place to work and that she really would be there forever with the wall plaque🥰. Beverley was presented with some beautiful gifts and there was a lovely lunch provided. 💐

Congratulations Beverley and well done on reaching this outstanding milestone 🥳

📮 FLU LETTERS 📮

Today we vaccinated 1300 patients and it was was a very sleek service. No more than a 5 minute wait and hardly any queues.

We have been notified from some patients that they have not received their flu letters even though they were all posted at the same time. Some patients only received letters this morning!

If you are one of these patients please don’t panic just come to our next clinic on Saturday 25th October 2025 at the same time that is on your letter and we will get you vaccinated.

Thank you to everyone who turned out today, we always enjoy our Saturday clinics when we get to have a chat with our fantastic patients.

🩼🩼 Tomorrow is the first of our flu/covid clinics. We envisage this to be a very busy day at the Practice.

🚘🚙 We also envisage the car park to be busy as well. We have Stephen and Thomas as your attendants tomorrow and we would kindly ask that you follow their instructions when parking so that we can ensure disabled people get priority near the entrance and those more able bodied park at the rear carpark and walk to the entrance 🚶🚶‍♀️

There has been an extension to the carpark in the last couple of years which has made a great difference to the large volume of traffic. Not everyone needs to park at the entrance as this causes obstruction. We would encourage if you can to please use this.

This is for pedestrian safety and will also ensure everyone gets vaccinated in a timely manner.

Thank you for your cooperation.

We have approximately 7200 eligible patients for Flu and there has been a huge effort gone into making our clinics run smoothly. We appreciate patience and understanding at this busy time and rest assure everyone is doing their best to keep you safe this winter! 😊
