Our senior leaders have had theirs - find out where you can get yours

Senior leaders smiling before their flu vaccination

Leading by example, senior leaders rolled up their sleeves at Trust board today to get their winter flu vaccination, protecting themselves and others. 

It's important to get your flu vaccine as early as possible during the winter period as it builds up your immunity before nasty winter viruses begin to spread - making October the perfect time to have yours. Flu injections are quick, relatively painless and mean that you are protecting yourself and others from harm.

With a packed itinerary for the day ahead, senior leaders were able to roll up their sleeves, get vaccinated and continue with their meeting with minimal delays or disruption thanks to our peer vaccinators. 

Lorraine Galligan, Chief of Nursing and Therapies shared:

“Having our peer vaccinators present on site at Trust HQ today has made the whole process so easy. We are fortunate that we have such dedicated colleagues available to ensure we stay well this winter.”

Get your flu vaccination at a site near you

Our peer vaccinators' flu vaccination timetable is now available on their dedicated webpage. If you are unable to access a clinic, the team can arrange a site visit to support you and your colleagues - simply email your divisional representative.
