Child Immunisation and Child Development

Child Immunization Clinics (Heidi and Joanne)

Tuesday and Friday Afternoon

Child immunisation clinics and new baby checkups can be booked directly by the receptionist and there is no need for a telephone appointment first. Please remember to cancel and rebook your appointment if you develop symptoms of possible Covid-19 and to wear a facemask as you come in to the practice

Ante-Natal

Midwives look after your pregnancy and delivery. This will be arranged with the local midwife at Ludlow Maternity Unit. The Antenatal Clinic is on Wednesday between 10:00am and 12:00pm at Ludlow Hospital.

Child Surveillance

Your Doctor is trained to care for your child during his/her development. He will examine your child shortly after birth and again at 6 weeks. Please bring your baby with you when you attend your 6-week postnatal check. The Health Visitor will work closely with your Doctor and will perform many of the developmental checks required on your child.

Immunisations

We strongly recommend your child has all pre-school immunisations to protect him/her from preventable diseases. You will be sent an appointment to see our Nurse, if you are unable to attend please cancel your appointment. Your doctor or nurse will discuss with you any worries you have about these injections.
