🤧 Got a cough, sore throat, runny nose or shortness of breath?

We’re supporting the Take-A-Test-UK (TATUK) self-swabbing programme, which helps monitor respiratory viruses including flu, COVID-19 and RSV.

If your symptoms started 4 days ago or less, you can request a free self-swabbing kit to be sent to your home. You do not need a GP appointment to take part.

👉 Request your kit at https://takeatestuk.com/

You’ll need your NHS number and our practice ODS code, which is shown on the poster.

Thank you for helping with important respiratory virus surveillance. 💙

Digital Cafe will be held at:Fern Meadows, Brickell Wy, Faringdon SN7 7ZF for this week only.

🎄 Our Giving Tree is returning! 🎁

You may notice a little bit of Christmas arriving early at White Horse Medical Practice this year.

Our Giving Tree will be going up on 30th October, giving everyone plenty of time to take part and, most importantly, giving us time to get your generous donations to where they need to be for Christmas.

This year we are collecting in support of The Pump House Project, Homeless Oxfordshire and Blue Cross.

If you would like to take part, simply choose a tag from the tree, buy and wrap the gift listed, and return it to the practice. Full details are on the poster below.

💚 Every gift makes a difference.

If you have any questions, please email [email protected].

Thank you for helping us spread a little kindness this Christmas. 🎄✨

Everyone welcome, just turn up!

💉 Thank You for Your Patience During Our Vaccination Clinics 💉

We would like to thank all of our patients for their patience, understanding, and support throughout our recent flu and COVID-19 vaccination programme.

Like many healthcare providers, we experienced some delays to vaccine deliveries this season. We appreciate your understanding when appointments needed to be adjusted and are grateful for the kindness shown to our team.

Despite these challenges, we have successfully continued to provide our normal day-to-day GP services while running vaccination clinics alongside them. Thanks to the support of both our patients and staff, we have already vaccinated 1,507 patients against flu and 500 patients against COVID-19.

We still have further clinics planned throughout October, as well as mop-up clinics and additional opportunities in November for eligible patients who have not yet received their vaccinations.

We will continue to contact eligible patients to offer vaccination appointments. However, if you do not wish to receive your flu and/or COVID-19 vaccination this season, please let us know. This will allow us to update our records and avoid contacting you unnecessarily with further reminders.

Thank you for working with us to protect our community this winter. Your patience, cooperation, and understanding have been greatly appreciated.

White Horse Medical Practice 🩺💙

Advance notice of our next community talk in November. All welcome - just turn up.

📢 Flu & COVID Vaccination Clinics This Week

We would like to let patients know that we will be holding our Flu and COVID Vaccination Clinics at the practice on:

🗓️ Thursday 1st October: 8:00am to 1:00pm
🗓️ Friday 2nd October: 2:00pm to 6:00pm

The practice will remain open as usual for all other appointments and services. However, due to the large number of patients expected to attend the vaccination clinics, there is likely to be significantly increased traffic and pressure on parking facilities throughout these times.

🚶 Where possible, please consider:

Walking to your appointment
Car sharing with family or friends
Being dropped off and collected afterwards

This will help us keep traffic moving and ensure patients can access the practice safely and efficiently.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation. We look forward to seeing everyone attending for their vaccinations. 💉😊

All patients are invited to the Patient Participation Group AGM. See below for details..

📢 Important Information About the NHS App

We've been made aware that some patients using the NHS App to submit an online request are receiving messages that suggest no appointments are available. We understand how frustrating this can be and would like to reassure you that we are currently investigating the issue.

✅ Our online consultation service is still available Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 6:30pm.

If you're having difficulties using the NHS App, please visit our website and access Engage Consult directly using the link below:

We also recognise that some of the wording within the NHS App can be confusing when trying to request a GP appointment. To help, we've created a simple step-by-step guide:

📞 If possible, please avoid visiting the practice to ask for assistance with this issue. Our reception team are currently managing a high volume of enquiries and may be unable to provide immediate support. If you need help, it is usually quicker to contact us by telephone and we will do our best to assist you.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while we work to resolve this issue. We will provide further updates as soon as we have more information.

📢 Flu Vaccination Update

Patients aged 65 and over who are eligible for a flu vaccination and/or COVID Vaccine have been contacted today and invited to book their appointment.

If you do not have a mobile number or email address recorded with us, please don't worry. We will be contacting these patients next week.

Eligible patients aged under 65 will also begin receiving their invitations next week.

Please use the booking link included in your invitation to book your appointment or decline your vaccination. If you do not wish to receive your vaccine this season, selecting the decline option helps us keep our records up to date and avoids further invitations being sent to you.

Thank you for your patience as we work through our vaccination programme. Please wait for your invitation before contacting the practice to book.
