All Covid-19 vaccination clinics provided by SSPCN will take place at the Roebuck Surgery, 114 Broadwater Crescent, SG2 8HW.
Home Visits for Housebound Patients
Patients who are registered as housebound with their practice will be contacted by our team via telephone, and home visits will be arranged with the Home Access Service.
