Letting your GP know if you are a carer

Healthwatch Hampshire has produced this helpful resource, setting out ten reasons to let your GP know that you are a carer.

Booster programme update (15.12.21)

As previously notified, extra booster capacity is being added locally to meet the government target of all adults being offered their booster jabs by the end of this month.  More information about the national arrangements, including the booking system, can be found here - Book or manage a coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccination - NHS (www.nhs.uk)

This course, which  runs in March, is designed  to help those going through  divorce  or separation - whichever stage they have reached.

Booking Blood Tests at the Hospital

Hampshire Hospitals have asked us to let patients know that their Phlebotomy Service is an appointment only service.  

You can use their online booking system by visiting basingstoke.sangixcloud.com or by searching 'blood tests' on hampshirehospitals.nhs.uk.  You will need to click on SIGN UP to create an account before booking.

Patients can also make a telephone booking by calling 01256 314751 between 9.00am – 4.30pm Monday to Friday.  Note that the phlebotomy department does not provide a walk-in service. If you require an urgent blood test they ask that you call this telephone booking line to arrange an appointment.
