A CRANBORNE GP practice is offering Covid-19 vaccinations in conjuction with a communty hospital. 

The Cranborne Practice, which covers Verwood and Cranborne, is currently working with St Leonards Community Hospital to offer vaccinations.

As of February 4, the St Leonards Hospital vaccination site had completed 15,121 vaccination doses, with planned delivery of a further 6,400 expected by mid February.

The practice is making good progress through the programme to vaccinate patients based on the government's order of priority.

However, the St Leonards appointment availability is linked to vaccine supplies allocated to that site, which may lead to a longer wait.

The practice is now asking patients to let them know if they book a vaccination at an alternative site. 

If you don’t want to wait for Cranborne Practice to provide you with an appointment at St Leonards Hospital and you decide to book an appointment at another vaccination site, email: cranborne.reception@dorsetgp.nhs.uk
