The Spring Covid booster programme will be starting in April - this is for all patients aged 75 and over (including patients who will turn 75 by the end of June) and for patients aged 5 - 74 who are recorded as immunosuppressed. 

Horsham Collaborative will be completing this programme and their new site is Bohunt School Sports Hall, Bailey Road, Horsham, RH12 6AP. 

Clinics will be on Sundays 28th April, 5th May, 12th May, 19th May and 26th May. 

If you require patient transport to get to the vaccination site, you can call Sussex transport on 01403 754206.

Eligibility is very strict and is NOT for carers or any household members who live with immunosuppressed patients.  The vaccine being used is Spikevax (Moderna) for the 18yrs and over and Pfizer for patients aged 6mths to 17yrs.  Housebound patients will be contacted by Horsham Collaborative in April to organise vaccination. 

Holbrook patients will be able to book into these clinics either by calling 119 or the National Booking System which goes live on the 15th April 2024

The surgery will be closed from 12.30pm on Tuesday 30th April for the afternoon, due to important staff training.

We will re-open at 08.00 as usual on Wednesday 1st May.

If you require anything urgent that cannot wait,

please call (01293 698088) For medical help and support.

Please do not call NHS111 or attend A&E  unless its an emergency.

Remember you can always visit our website for prescriptions and other queries.

the NHS wants to give people better ways to see their personal health information online. We know that people want to be able to access their health records. It can help you see test results faster. It also lets you read and review notes from your appointments in your own time.

From October 2023 you will see all prospective information within your health record automatically. If you are over 16 and have an online account, such as through the NHS App you will be able to see all future notes and health records from your doctor (GP).

This means you will be able to see notes from your appointments, as well as test results and any letters that are saved on your records. This only applies to records from your doctor (GP), not from hospitals or other specialists. You will only be able to see information after October 2023. For most people, access will be automatic, and you won't need to do anything.

We are supportive of providing you with access to your record, but we wish to do this safely and make you aware that this is happening so that you can opt out, if you so wish. You may wish to speak with us first to understand what it is that you see, and the risks which may be involved in having such confidential data either on your smartphone with the NHS app installed or online if other people might have access to that information through your devices. If you are in a difficult or pressured relationship for example, you may prefer your records to remain accessible only to those treating you.

it is important to remember that documents may, at times contain information that could be upsetting, especially if they contain news of a serious condition. It can also be a cause for worry seeing results online when it isn't clear what the results might mean, and no one is available to ask, as can be the case during the evening or at weekends, for example.

Sometimes people with a mental health condition might prefer not to see documents that remind them of difficult times in their life. it is possible for individual items to be hidden at your request.

Please contact the surgery if you wish to opt out.

These changes only apply to patients with online accounts.
