How to access your COVID-19 vaccination status
We are unable to issue this certificate at the practice.
Please see https://www.gov.uk/guidance/demonstrating-your-covid-19-vaccination-status-when-travelling-abroad for further information.
Proof of your vaccination status will be available on the NHSapp.
The NHSapp can be downloaded from https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/nhs-app/id1388411277 for iPhone or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nhs.online.nhsonline for android.
Alternatively you can call the NHS helpline on 119 (from 17 May) and ask for a letter to be posted to you. This must be at least 5 days after you’ve completed your course of the vaccine, the letter may to take up to 5 days to reach you.
Do not contact your GP surgery about your COVID-19 vaccination status. GPs cannot provide letters showing your COVID-19 vaccination status.
Kind regards
Dunchurch Surgery

If you are aged 45 and over and have not had your first coronavirus vaccination, you can now book it through the NHS website or by calling 119
This gives you the option of a number of options including the vaccination centre at Stoneleigh, or local pharmacy sites who also offer Covid Vaccines.
Please do not contact your GP as they will not be able to make you an appointment.

Covid 19 vaccinations update
The practice strongly recommends vaccination against Covid-19.
We are working in collaboration with the other Rugby GP practices
(The Rugby Health Primary Care Network)
to administer vaccines at:
Locke House, The Railings, Woodside Park, Rugby, CV21 2AW.
Patients are invited by the practice (by phone or by text message) to make an appointment.
Please ensure that you have told us your current mobile phone or landline number.
You may also be invited to attend the centralized vaccination centres at Birmingham or at Stoneleigh or to obtain vaccines through hospital or pharmacy sources. All vaccinations are recorded on a national database.
We have followed Government guidelines to offer vaccination to patients in the following order:
1. residents in a care home for older adults and their carers
2. those 80 years of age and over and frontline health and social care workers
3. all those 75 years of age and over
4. all those 70 years of age and over and clinically extremely vulnerable individuals
5. all those 65 years of age and over
6. all individuals aged 16 years to 64 years with underlying health conditions which put them at higher risk of serious disease and mortality
7. all those 60 years of age and over
8. all those 55 years of age and over
9. all those 50 years of age and over
We have offered a first vaccination appointment to everyone in Groups 1-9.
Second doses of vaccinations (11-12 weeks after the first) have also begun.
Patients will be invited for second vaccinations as these become due.
Invitations are, of course, subject to the availability of vaccine which is beyond our control.
If you belong to groups 1-9 above and have not yet received your first Covid 19 vaccination but would like to do so, please contact the surgery as soon as possible.

We are aware of social media reporting that vaccines are going to waste at the Stoneleigh vaccination centre. This is incorrect. We would like to assure local people that all available vaccines are being used.
The centre is fully booked and we expect this to continue, as more eligible people are asked to book their appointments. This includes:
* Carers in receipt of carers allowance
* Those who are formally shielding and have received an invitation letter
* And anyone aged between 60 and 64.
No one should attend the site without an appointment and only those in the activated priority groups should book an appointment at Stoneleigh. Anyone who attends without an appointment or is not in the appropriate cohort will be asked to leave and will not be vaccinated.
