Mask policy at Nutwood Medical Practice
The Government has announced that face masks will no longer be mandatory in public spaces from Thursday 27th January. However, we have a duty to protect vulnerable patients in our surgeries and so masks will still need to be worn when entering either of our surgery sites. Those who are unable to wear a mask due to a medical condition will still be exempt. Please continue to help us keep our surgeries safe for others.
Coronavirus Spring Booster Vaccinations
We will be holding our next clinic on Thursday 12th May, for patients eligible for the Spring booster vaccination. We will call or text all of those who are eligible.
Digital NHS COVID Pass available to children aged 12 to 15
This is a reminder that children can get an NHS Login in order to generate a digital COVID Pass via the NHS App or nhs.uk without the need to contact general practice.
The NHS COVID Pass service for 12- to 15-year-olds went live in early February, and it is accessible via nhs.uk for those aged 12 and over, and the NHS App for those aged 13 and over. In addition to providing access to the NHS COVID Pass, the NHS App will allow 13- to 15-year-olds to access other non-personalised services such as Health A-Z, organ donation and 111 online.
Children can access their digital NHS COVID Pass without needing to undergo a Gillick competency assessment with a medical professional. However, the NHS App will withhold children’s other medical data unless an assessment has been undertaken. Patients can find out more on the NHS website or by ringing 119
Flookburgh Surgery

Coronavirus (COVID-19)
This continues to be a worrying time for all of us. Please protect yourself and others (including your GP practice team) by following the latest Government advice: GOV.uk - Coronavirus. If you think you are developing symptoms or want to arrange a Covid19 swab please access the NHS website.

Dissent from secondary use of patient identifiable data
The national data opt-out was introduced on 25 May 2018, enabling patients to opt out from the use of their data for research or planning purposes, in line with the recommendations of the National Data Guardian in her Review of Data Security, Consent and Opt-Outs.
Patients can view or change their national data opt-out choice at any time by using the online service at the National data opt-out website or by calling 0300 3035678. You can also download a Register your Type 1 Opt-out preference form or collect a form from the surgery to complete.
By 30 September 2021 all health and care organisations are required to be compliant with the national data opt-out policy.
