Flu vaccinations are available to health and social care workers and we would urge everyone working in the sector to take up the offer, and the offer of a COVID-19 booster, when available. There is an integrated central booking system who are ensuring that the social care workforce are contacted to book their vaccinations in the order in which their Booster vaccination is due. We would urge all staff to book their booster as soon as possible. There is a central contact number which is: 01302 566 055 and an email inbox syicb-doncaster.urgent-care@nhs.net for any queries or concerns.
