"COVID-19 Vaccination"

About: Somerset NHS Foundation Trust / Covid-19 Vaccination Service

(as the patient),

Very impressed with the organisation of the new Vaccination Centre and the very helpful, considerate and cheerfulness of all he volunteers and medical staff. But I was surprised by how few people turned up for vaccination. I was one of a only a handful at 6.30pm.and was treated immediately on arrival even though I arrived 30 minutes early. If this represents the failure of people with appointments not turning up, I feel stronger measures should be taken to deal with this.

thank you for your feedback. The centres are still new and we have not filled all of the bookable slots yet, this may be why there were not many people there when you attended.

We are working to fill every slot we can offer to ensure we vaccinate everyone as soon as possible.
