🏥We’ve been working hard putting in place all the Covid-19 guidelines to make sure you receive your flu vaccination safely in the Upper Valleys.

Some practices are able to give the vaccine in their surgery, others have had to use alternative venues, all are Covid secure. (1/3)

[Upper Valleys Cluster @UpperValleys]

Implementing the guidelines and strictly observing physical distancing measures, means our teams can’t see as many people in one go as they would have done previously. Sessions are more spread out over a longer period of time because the safety of our patients is paramount(2/3)
