The Almshouse Association is now aware that for the next 2 weeks, eligible frontline care workers can access their first Coronavirus vaccination via the National Booking Service. The Service allows individuals to book at a time and location which is convenient to them.
The guidance we have received notes:
“As with the current process, social care workers can access their vaccination appointment with a Local Authority-issued Notice of Eligibility. They can now also use a recent letter from their employer, along with photo identification which confirms their place of work. For those who do not have a work photo ID, as a minimum, a letter from their employer with another form of photo ID will be needed. Frontline social care workers should also be encouraged to inform their employers of their vaccination to enable this to be included in data returns to help us target support where needed.”
If you or your colleagues are eligible to be considered at this stage this link may be useful.
