Well be shut Good Friday and Easter Monday

🐣 Easter reminder: order your repeat prescriptions early

With the Easter bank holidays coming up, GP practices and many pharmacies will be closed or running reduced hours.

If you take regular medication, please check what you have now and order your repeat prescription in good time. This helps you avoid running out and reduces pressure on urgent services over the holiday weekend.

You can order repeat prescriptions easily:

• Online through your GP practice
• Using the NHS App
• By contacting your GP practice directly

A little planning now can save a lot of worry later.

Great advice given the recent news

Meningitis vaccines:

Meningitis can be caused by a number of different infections, so several vaccinations offer some protection against it.

Children should receive their vaccines as part the NHS vaccination schedule - https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/nhs-vaccinations-and-when-to-have-them/

▪️MenACWY vaccine:

The MenACWY vaccine is recommended for all teenagers. It is usually given to children when they are 13 or 14 years old (school year 9).

If you have missed having the vaccine when you were at school, you can get it up to the age of 25 years.

▪️MenB Vaccine:

The MenB vaccine offers protection against meningococcal group B bacteria, which are a common cause of meningitis in young children. This vaccine is recommended for babies aged 8 weeks, followed by a second dose at 12 weeks and a booster at 1 year. GP Practices are unable to administer the vaccine to whose who have not received their dose as an infant.

If you are unsure, if you are up to date with your vaccines, you can check your vaccination history using the NHS App.
