Keighley Road Surgery is open to telephone calls 8:00am to 6:30pm Monday to Friday.  Do not visit the surgery at this time, please call us on 01422 247528 and we'll advise you of the best way to obtain help with your health needs.

We have been open every working day (and some Bank Holidays) throughout the pandemic and WE ARE STILL here providing care to all of our patients.

Covid-19 vaccinations

The NHS is currently offering Covid-19 vaccinations to people in the following priority groups:

· Cohort 5 – people aged 65-69

· Cohort 6 – people with underlying health conditions that put them at greater risk from Covid-19

and carers of elderly and disabled people.

· Cohort 7 – people aged 60-64

· Cohort 8 – people aged 55-59

If you are in one of these groups, you will be contacted when it is your turn for a vaccination, either by your practice or the NHS national booking service.

Anyone aged 55 or over can book an appointment through the national booking service without waiting for a letter or by calling 119. This will be extended to people in cohort 9 (50-54) over the next few weeks so keep an eye on the site homepage to see when you can use the service.

We know lots of people will be eager to get protected but please do not contact your GP practice or the NHS for an appointment. The NHS is working hard to make sure those at greatest risk are offered the vaccine first and people will not be able to make an appointment until they have received an invitation.

Covid-19 vaccinations are free of charge and only available through the NHS. 

The NHS will never ask you for your bank account or card details, your PIN or banking password, or ask you to press a button on your keypad.

Please continue to follow all the safety guidance even when you’ve had the vaccine as you may still be able to spread the disease, in particular hand hygiene, wearing a face mask and social distancing.

For more information about the vaccine, please visit www.nhs.uk

Changes to Products available on Prescription

After careful consultation with the Public, NHS Calderdale CCG has recommended that Practices stop routinely prescribing branded medicines and a number of lower value, self-care products, which are widely available to buy without prescription from pharmacies and supermarkets.

• Emollients (moisturisers) for minor dry skin conditions
• Cosmetic products e.g. facial hair products
