💉✨ It’s flu season! ✨💉

We’ve just started our staff flu vaccination programme here at Practice Plus Group Hospital Shepton Mallet. Leading by example, our Hospital Director and Medical Director were among the first to have their flu jabs today. 👏

Getting the flu vaccine is one of the best ways to protect yourself, your loved ones, and your patients during the winter months.

👉 The NHS recommends the flu vaccine for:
✔️ All frontline health and social care staff
✔️ People aged 65 and over
✔️ Pregnant women
✔️ Anyone with certain health conditions

By getting vaccinated, we’re not only protecting ourselves but also reducing the spread of flu within our communities.

Let’s all do our part this flu season – stay protected, stay well. 💙
