We have today sent texts to eligible patients to book directly for a flu vaccination. We are trying to phone all patients without a mobile but this takes a great deal of time. If you know of any relatives who are eligible for a vaccination and have not yet had one please encourage them to phone and book an appointment.

We have available clinics up until the end of next week. From week commencing 24 November the Health Board will be stepping in to assist all practices whose patients have not yet had either the flu or the covid vaccination. Patients at that point will be asked to attend one of the Health Board vaccination centres. We will then not be actively inviting patients as this can cause duplication in staff time and patients often forget they have an appointment booked either at the surgery or at a centre. This results in a lot on none attendance and wasted clinical time. We are unsure whether the Health Board will withdraw the remainder of our flu vaccines so if you wish to have your vaccination in the surgery we would encourage you to book if you have not yet done so.

UKHSA’s early season data shows vaccination remains best defence alongside good respiratory hygiene as flu activity rises.

In November we will be moving over to Electronic Prescriptions (known as EPS). You will nominate a chosen pharmacy and any prescriptions whether on repeat medication or an acute issue given on the day will be sent electronically without the need for you to have a paper prescription. There will be no right hand side of the prescription given to you unless you request it via the pharmacy or in the surgery.

If you have not already done so please download the NHS Wales App which is available on both the Apple store and the Google Play store. This will make it so much easier for you to order your prescriptions. You will not have to contact the surgery or a pharmacy you just request them on the APP.

The NHS Wales App replaced My Health Online which was well used by patients to order prescriptions. Hopefully, the NHS Wales APP will be used more fully to make the ordering of your prescriptions a more slicker process.

We have a doctor off sick today in Broughton so will be short of appointments if your condition will wait, we would appreciate you to phone another day.
We are sorry for any inconvenience this causes.

Flu / covid appointment invite update.

We were hoping to send appointment links for patients to book directly for an appointment, but the system we have to use has its limitations. It is not possible for us to currently send the link more than 4 weeks ahead. We are hoping this may be extended to 6 weeks in the near future.

In the meantime we will be sending messages for patients to reply to and we will provide them with a time of an appointment on the day they choose. Due to the staff time this will take, we will be sending them in batches. At the moment we only have Saturday clinics on our system, but will be having other days available soon.

You are free to telephone to book directly, but please leave it until after 11:00 a.m. when our phone lines are less busy. The only dates you can currently book are:

Broughton clinics - Saturday 4th and 18th October
Buckley clinics - Saturday 11th and 25th October

It is not possible for us to start any earlier as we have to follow the guidance set by Welsh Government who state we cannot vaccinate until 1st October.

Sorry, for any inconvenience this causes.
