Flu vaccinations

 

BACK TO MAIN INDEX

 

East Lothian Health & Social Care Partnership are responsible for delivering the flu vaccination programme this year.

You can find out if you’re in a priority group eligible for a flu vaccine at https://www.nhsinform.scot/

We don’t have all the details at the moment but we can tell you:

 

  • All patients over 70 will receive letters with an appointment.
  • Under 70s , including those at risk will be invited to self register for an appointment.
  • Clinics will be available at East Lothian Community Hospital and Musselburgh Primary Care Centre and these will be open 7 days a week. 

 

Please do not phone the practice as no further information is available at present and we cannot make or rearrange any of the appointments for you.  We are aware that some of the early appointment letters in East Lothian have allocated patients to vaccine clinics a long way away.  This is being fixed moving forward but if you have received an appointment for a vaccination clinic far away you can rearrange the venue by calling 0300 790 6296. 

 

We will share more information as it becomes available both here and on our facebook page.
