Masks

In light of the recent updated guidance we have completed a Risk Assessment regarding wearing masks and as such can now confirm the following changes to our policy.  These changes will take affect from Monday 27^th June 2022.

• Clinicians (GP, Nurses, HCA’s, Physio) are still required to wear a mask when seeing a patient
• Clinicians (GP, Nurses, HCA’s, Physio) can request that their patient wear a mask
• Patients no longer need to wear a mask when they are in the surgery unless:

1. They are visiting due to a respiratory illness e.g coughing
2. It is their personal preference
3. They have been asked to by a clinician

• Dispensers are no longer required to wear a mask unless this is their personal preference
• Receptionists are no longer required to wear a mask unless this is their personal preference
• Admin staff are no longer required to wear a mask unless this is their personal preference

 Please be considerate to others, we hope there will be a mutual respect between staff and patients so that everyone will feel comfortable with the new changes.  The plastic screens will remain in place, we currently do not have any plans for their removal. 

Vaccinations for Coronavirus (COVID-19)

At each stage of the Covid-19 Vaccination Programme Mid Devon Medical Practice will invite patients to attend vaccination appointments. The order in which people will be invited is based on the JCVI (Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation) prioritisation

Our staff are working incredibly hard to deliver what is the largest vaccination programme in our history, at the same time as continuing to be there for everyone who needs care. You have an important part to play to help us to do this:

• Please don’t contact the surgery to seek a vaccine, we will contact you
• When we do contact you, please attend your booked appointment at exactly the time we give you
• Please continue to follow all the guidance to control the virus and save lives.
