Please make sure your child is up to date with their vaccinations and book an appointment at the surgery to catch up on missed doses. Two doses of the MMR vaccine can provide lifelong protection against measles.
Measles is more than just a rash. 1 in 5 children with measles will need hospital treatment. It can cause serious complications and in rare cases can be fatal.
If you are unsure if you or your child are up to date with your vaccinations, please contact the practice.
If you have been referred to hospital since January 2018, our local Productive Patient and Public Involvement (PPPI) team would be very grateful if could complete this brief survey about your experience. This will help the local NHS to understand how to help patients get the best out of the hospital outpatients experience in future.
The survey can be found at www.surveymonkey.co.uk.
