If you use an inhaler, arrange to speak to one of our clinicians to see if a dry powder inhaler could be more effective for your respiratory condition – they’re better for the planet too!

Information for patients about what will be the largest vaccine campaign the surgery has ever run, with nearly 3,200 of our patients requiring a booster of both Covid and flu vaccines between now and early December.

The government has announced third doses for the immunosuppressed cohort and booster doses of the COVID-19 vaccine for eligible groups.

A message from the Institute of General Practice Management:

Practices across the UK have been informed that flu vaccine deliveries from the supplier Seqirus are going to be delayed by at least one or two weeks due to ‘unforeseen freight challenges’. That means that UK general practices will be without vaccines, possibly until the beginning of October. This is completely outside of their control.

Your GP practice will continue to work hard to change their existing plans and ensure that as soon as confirmed delivery dates are received, patients will be contacted and appointments booked.

On Sunday 1st August, the Minor Injury Unity in Whitby will change to an Urgent Treatment Centre (UTC).

Find out more about the changes on the PCN website.
