Statement from Ridge PCN

The Ridge PCN (comprised of Bearsted, Headcorn, Langley, Lenham, and Sutton Valence surgeries) have delivered over 80,000 covid vaccinations since last December, including booster vaccinations to many of our most vulnerable patients. This has required an enormous amount of planning and administration, plus the commitment of our clinical workforce. After careful discussion a unanimous decision has been made that we need to focus on delivering Primary Care services to our patients and therefore will not be continuing with the Booster programme after Christmas.

Please contact 119, visit www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/book-coronavirus-vaccination/ or look at www.kentandmedwayccg.nhs.uk/your-health/coronavirus/covid19vaccine for local services offering the vaccination.

We would like to thank everyone who has been involved in this project for their time and commitment.
