Face masks: rights and responsibilities

Clinically vulnerable patients have the right to feel safe when they attend a GP surgery. As society reopens further after 19 July, we have a choice whether to attend a nightclub or sports arena. People who might have limited vaccine protection shouldn’t face a difficult choice when they need to visit the NHS for essential care.

Spilsby Surgery takes its responsibilities to patients very seriously and anticipates our community will want to do the same. Public Health England expects visitors to the Surgery to wear a surgical mask. Entry to our building remains by appointment whilst the number of Covid cases is high. We will review our policies based on data, not dates.

Our team looks forward to your continued support in the coming weeks. Please enjoy the summer safely.
