Thank you to everyone who has either had a vaccine so far or completed the appropriate forms to say you have declined or had it elsewhere, your participation is greatly appreciated.

More flu clinics are available in your area.

Flu clinics are available across the Trust and clinic dates are advertised here, on Need to Know. If you don’t see an available slot that suits your needs, there is the possibility for drop-in and rolling clinics so please speak to your covid lead as detailed on the flu clinic page.

Mid and South Essex and Hertfordshire and West Essex are currently the most boosted sectors. For all the other sectors there is still time to get yourself jabbed.

 Covid Boosters

All employees can book a Covid-19 booster jab via the National Booking Service here.  For the National Booking Service, you will need to self-declare as a HCSW at the time of booking.

On attendance of your appointment, you will need your Trust ID confirming your role within the Trust. If you are a non-clinical member of staff, we will provide you with the Trust's letter of support detailing your eligibility for the Covid-19 booster jab. This letter, alongside your Trust ID, will need to be shown when you attend your appointment. You can download the letter here.
