​​​COVID-19

We are aware it is a difficult time at the moment for everyone due to COVID-19. We are immensely grateful to our fantastic community for being so supportive during this time. Our goal is to make the practice a safe space, free of potential infection, for the most vulnerable people who need face-to-face care.
With this in mind; the whole team at the clinic are dealing with constant changes that are decided upon by the partners at weekly practice meetings. We understand this may be confusing at times but it is unfortunately unavoidable during the current crisis.
​
COVID VACCINATIONS:
The Russell Clinic is involved in the COVID vaccination 1b rollout from week 3. Initially the COVID vaccinations will be supplied to the practice at 50 per week. As you can imagine this is a significant shortfall on what we were hoping for and will mean that the process will be slow to occur at first. With this in mind we will be proactively contacting patient to book them into clinics in the following order as per Governments guidelines for phase 1b: patients aged 90 and over, patients aged 80 - 89 years, patients aged 70-79 years. This is likely to be a fluid situation and may well change week to week.

If you have any of the following symptoms it is recommended to have a COVID-19 test and self isolate until symptoms subside:
- Fever or chills
- cough
- sore throat
- runny nose
- shortness of breath
- loss of taste and smell
