The Covid-19 Vaccination Programme

The Covid-19 vaccination programme has begun.  When it is your turn to be vaccinated, the NHS will contact you.  Please do not contact the NHS.

In Nottingham and Nottinghamshire, a few different health and care organisations including hospitals, GP practices, care homes and others are working together on the Covid-19 vaccination programme.  This means when it is your turn to be vaccinated, this may not be at your GP practice.  You will be told where to go for your appointment and how to book.

In line with expert guidance, the first priority for vaccination is care home residents and staff, people over the age of 80 and frontline health and care workers.

We understand a lot of people want to be vaccinated and would like to reassure you this will happen.  Please be patient and wait to be contacted.

For further information on why you are being asked to wait for your Covid-19 vaccine, please read the information on the GOV.UK website.

Coronavirus - COVID 19

The NHS and Public Health England (PHE) are extremely well prepared for outbreaks of new infectious diseases. The NHS has put in place measures to ensure the safety of all patients and NHS staff while also ensuring services are available to the public as normal.

 Do not go to a GP surgery, community pharmacy or hospital, Visit 111.nhs.uk or Call 111 for advice if you have any flu like symptoms.

 Further information is available on www.nhs.uk.

 Like the common cold, coronavirus infection usually occurs through close contact with a person with novel coronavirus via cough and sneezes or hand contact. A person can also be infected by touching contaminated surfaces if they do not wash their hands.

  Everyone is being reminded to follow Public Health England advice to:

• Always carry tissues with you and use them to catch your cough or sneeze. Then bin the tissue, and wash your hands, or use a sanitiser gel.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after using public transport. Use a sanitiser gel if soap and water are not available.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Avoid close contact with people who are unwell.

 You can find the latest information and advice from Public Health England https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/

 And further information is available on www.nhs.uk.

Extended Access

Did you know you can now book GP Appointments in Mid Nottinghamshire on evenings and weekends?

All GP Surgeries across Mansfield, Ashfield, Newark and Sherwood can now offer evening and weekend routine GP appointments.  These appointments are available to all residents who are registered with a GP Practice in Mid Nottinghamshire.

The appointment may not take place at your usual GP surgery, but at another nearby. Your GP surgery will be able to provide you with more information about the location at the time of booking an appointment.  Here is a list of the GP Surgeries in your area.  Please click on the name of surgery that the receptionist provided you with for further information and directions including any parking information. 

Appointments are available up to 8pm on a weekday, Saturdays 9am - 5pm and Sundays from 9am – 1pm.    

Please note Sunday appointments are currently only available at Forest Medical Practice, Rosemary Street Health Centre, NG19 6AB. This is located just off Chesterfield Road very close to the Civic Centre with free car parking available. There is a pharmacy next to the surgery, which is open until 10pm 7 days per week. The surgery is accredited as Dementia friendly, has disability access and is within easy reach of the town centre.  We are currently working with partners to look at possibilities in Newark and further information will be available on our websites shortly. 

Please note that these appointments are for non-emergencies and are pre-bookable only.   

If you find that you no longer need your appointment please cancel it so that these can be offered to other patients. 

For further information please speak to your GP Surgery.  A frequently asked questions information sheet has been produced in partnership with some of our practice managers and GPs and can be found here.  A Patient Information Leaflet has also been produced which can be found here.
