You said we did - ASH Dec 2020Ash Vaccination Programme
/in News/by ClerkGOOD NEWS-The vaccination programme has begun across our Primary Care Network, starting with the over 80’s. Ash Surgery is part of a hub at Minster Surgery, and this is where the vaccinations are currently being administered. Patients are being invited on a tier basis, grouped into categories with care home residents and the over 80’s in the first tier. Patients do not need to contact their surgeries, they will be invited when it is their turn. Please bear in mind that our capacity to deliver the vaccine very much depends on availability and delivery but rest assured that we are working exceedingly hard to ensure our patients receive this as soon as possible. Sue Skinner, Practice Manager Ash Surgery.
