Please note that people in the 50-64-year old age group will not be vaccinated until November and December, providing there is sufficient vaccine, and no appointments will be offered for
this age group until then. This is to ensure that those who are most at risk are vaccinated first. If you are 50-64 and you are in one of the other groups which is eligible for the flu vaccination,
for example you have a health condition which puts you at risk from the flu, you will be invited earlier.
Face coverings must be worn please
With effect from Monday 15/6/20, all people entering Redcar hospital are required to wear their own face covering. Please ensure you fit your face covering before entering the building and leave it on until you are safely outside.
The practice went live with E-consult on 28/4/20.
Please see the home page on our website to access this service, which allows you to consult with a GP electronically.
CORONAVIRUS - IMPORTANT UPDATE
As you may have heard in the media, GP practices will soon deliver the Covid Vaccination programme. We will do this in partnership with other local practices. The Government has published the order in which patients must be invited. This is based on clinical need and the link is below. We will invite patients as we work through each of the priority groups. Please do not telephone us, we will contact you.
This, together with an increased flu campaign places unprecedented pressure on our service. Please be patient and bear with us. We are fully committed to delivering this important programme to patients as swiftly as possible, whilst also maintaining as many normal GP services as possible.

GP surgeries have also been asked to consult with patients by telephone, rather than face to face. This measure protects our staff and patients. We will implement this change from Monday 16/3/20. Please rest assured that all our team here at The Green House are working extremely hard to implement measures to ensure we continue to provide a high standard of care to all our patients. There is no cause for alarm or panic, we have good contingency plans to ensure the continuity of your GP healthcare service. We ask for your patience and support at this challenging time for the NHS.
With effect from 19/3/20, as a result of demand on our service, we are increasing our turnaround time for repeat prescriptions to 72 hours.
Please follow us on Facebook for regular updates on the changes to our services as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic.
