NHS COVID-19 Vaccination Programme

We continue to contact patients who are eligible to be vaccinated at our GP-led vaccination centre. When you are invited to book in with us, we will not be able to confirm the date for your second appointment but you will need to have this at the same vaccination centre and you can be assured that we will arrange this date with you nearer the time.

If you had your first vaccination with us and have not yet been contacted for your second dose, we will be in touch with you as soon as we have slots available.

If you are aged over 45, you will be contacted by the national booking service. However, if you would prefer to be vaccinated at our GP-led centre, you can contact us to arrange this.

NHS Covid-19 Vaccination Programme

How To Book Your own Appointment for a COVID Vaccination (If you are 45 or over)

We have invited all our patients who are over 45 or Clinically Extremely Vulnerable (CEV) for a COVID-19 vaccination. If you are over 45 or in the CEV group and have not heard from us you can now book your vaccination in two ways.

Please either contact us and let us have your up to date contact details so that we can arrange an appointment for your vaccination, or alternatively to book your vaccination at another location you can now book by visiting www.nhs.uk/covid-vaccination or ringing 119 free. You no longer need a letter.

Due to the coronavirus outbreak, how you contact us will be different at the moment. This is to limit face-to-face contact whenever possible and help stop the spread of coronavirus.

Your GP practice is open and if you need to see your GP, please ring us on 0208 876 3901 SHEEN LANE/ 0208 876 4442 KEW or visit our website www.richmondmedicalgroup.co.uk which will show our opening times.

You can also call NHS 111. Please do not come to the surgery unless you have an appointment.

If you are waiting for a check-up, please be assured we will be in touch

Appointments are being delivered face-to-face, online and over the telephone. If you are asked to come into the surgery for a face-to-face appointment, please remember to wear a face covering. Measures are in place to keep you safe from infection during your visit to the surgery.

Covid-19 Advice

If you have symptoms associated with coronavirus including a new continuous cough and/or a high temperature and/or anosmia (a loss of or change in your normal sense of smell or taste), you are advised to stay at home for 7 days. Do not book a GP appointment or attend your GP practice. If you live with other people, they should also stay at home for at least 14 days, to avoid spreading the infection outside the home.

If your symptoms are serious, or get worse, NHS 111 has an online coronavirus service that can tell you if you need further medical help and advise you what to do.

Only call 111 direct if you are advised to do so by the online service or cannot go online.

For the latest COVID-19 advice please visit www.nhs.uk/coronavirus.

If you have been advised to isolate either directly or by following Government or Public Health advice, and require an isolation note for your employer this can be found at 111.nhs.uk/isolation-note/.

For those self isolating in line with guidance, as well as those who have been advised to observe a 12 week period of social distancing due to being in an at risk group then you may wish to download and fill in the following document to provide to your employer RMG Distancing Letter.
