Please help to protect us
Posted on:

There are a lot of coughs and colds going around at the moment.
If you need to come into surgery and you have a cough or a cold please wear a mask to protect our staff.
It is usual for one of our nurses to see 29 different patients in one clinic session.
If 1 or 2 patients have a cough or cold there is a chance of passing the germs to the nurse.
With the increase of poorly patients during this time of year, the chances of the germs being passed to the nurse is huge.
Your clinician is likely to wear a mask during your consultation, but if patients also wear a mask the risk is minimal.
Thank you for your continued support.
