WINTER 2011/12

FLU JABS
If you are aged 65 or over you should have a flu jab every year. If you are under 65 with certain illnesses, you should also have an annual flu jab. The groups we are targeting are those with chronic respiratory disease (including asthma needing steroid inhalers & COPD), chronic heart disease, chronic renal disease, immunosuppression due to disease or treatment, diabetes, chronic liver disease and chronic neurological disease (eg stroke & TIA). We are also targeting pregnant women and carers.

If you still have not received your flu jab please contact us at your earliest convenience.

 

CHANGES TO OUR STAFF
 

After 12 years of service with West Bar Surgery, we wished our practice nurse Robyn Baird a fond farewell. We wish her all the best for the future.

Our Drugs and Alcohol Councillor, Ian Morrison has now retired. We would like to welcome Claire Forrest, who has taken over from Ian, to join the West Bar Surgery team. The clinic will continue to run on a Tuesday during the hours of 9.00am - 5.00pm. If you have previously attended the clinic and have not received treatment for a while then you will need to book an appointment with your GP to be re-referred to this clinic.
