Covid Booster Clinic At Beaminster Public Hall – Saturday, 13th November

There will be an extra Covid Booster Clinic in Beaminster Public Hall on Saturday, 13th November. 12.30pm – 5pm.
This will be a walk in clinic only, no appointments necessary.  You just need to:
  • have had your 2nd dose at least 6 months ago
  • be aged 50 and over.  be aged 16 and over with a health condition that puts you at high risk from COVID-19 and the NHS has invited you to book
  • be a frontline health or social care worker

Please note, this is at the Public Hall and not Barton House surgery.

We will take as many patients as capacity and vaccine availability allow, but I need people to be patient. You will need to wait, and potentially to be prepared to come back on a different day if necessary. My team have kindly agreed to give up their Saturday to try and help get people their jab, and we will try our best to help you but we can’t vaccinate West Dorset in one day! Please be patient and respectful, or we will have to revert to booked appointments only in future.
One final point, please don’t turn up to the Town Hall on a day when we are not operating as the Town Council will not be able to help you!

Vaccination Update From Barton House Medical Practice

Our next vaccination session will be FRIDAY 2nd APRIL (yes, Good Friday 🙄 as the vaccine will expire otherwise!)
We will be inviting patients for the second dose of their Pfizer vaccine.
Patients who are due their next PFIZER vaccine (11-12 weeks after their first), who have not been contacted, may contact the booking call centre on 01308 808714 where a member of the PCN team will be available to assist.
PLEASE do not call the surgery as this will block our lines; patients will be contacted by text/phone by our Primary Care Network booking team.
Please refer to the Jurassic Coast Primary Care Network website (look for the Coronavirus “box” on the front page) for important information on what to expect on the day including important vaccine-specific information we would ask you to read prior to the appointment.
PLEASE do ensure you are prepared for the visit, particularly regarding parking at the BMC site. We have volunteer marshals throughout the site to ensure patients are looked after from start to finish.
We are expecting the weather to be mostly cooler but with a bit of sunshine 🌤. We will try all we can to minimise queues spilling to outside but please do come dressed for all weathers.
We will also be collecting for “The Cowshed at number 17“, Bridport Health and Wellbeing Champions’ allotment space behind the medical centre – all donations welcome, look out for the blue buckets!
THANKS ALL!
