Covid Vaccines

Dr Maya Mistry General Practioner at Greenwood Surgery

17 th July 2024

Crouch Vale Medical Centre operates as a ‘designated site’ to deliver Covid vaccines for patients living in South Woodham Ferrers and Dengie. (The two areas making up our local ‘Primary Care Network’)

Criteria for each NHS campaign changes. The Spring 2024 campaign finished 30th June 2024 and the next will start in October 2024. Please check here for updated information nearer the time.

If you have difficulty using the telephone, e.g. hard of hearing, please make contact using email central.referral@nhs.net


There are NEW safety check lists and updated guidance found below.

This practice is not able to provide you with a letter that shows your COVID-19 vaccination status. Please do not contact the practice about your COVID-19 vaccination status unless you have been advised to by the 119 service.

The Greenwood Surgery PPG members  have organised a group of committed volunteers from across the PCN who have helped on a regular basis. They have done a truly fantastic job and we couldn’t have run our clinics without their support.

The Chelmsford Mayor made a visit to thank a small group of volunteers for all their hard work and dedication so far. When we are in a safer climate a larger gathering of all volunteers will be organised.

Thanking our volunteers


Patient feedback:

We just wanted to send a quick email to thank you, NHS staff and volunteers for the wonderful work you are doing regarding the Covid vaccination rollout. When we came this morning everyone was professional, friendly and courteous in what we are sure must be very difficult circumstances.

Please convey our thanks to everyone involved. You are all stars as far as we are concerned and we are truly grateful.

Regards

Mr and Mrs LB and TB
