We are working with Hywel Dda University Health Board on a plan to roll out the vaccination of patients with the Astra Zeneca/Oxford vaccine.
Following national guidance, we will be contacting patients who either live in a care home or are 80 years or older.
Please be patient with us while we work with the health board to deliver this first phase of the public vaccination programme.
We will contact you as soon as we have vaccine supplies to offer.
Dr Sion James said "We know that this is going to happen gradually over the next few weeks and that some practices may receive the vaccine before others.
“Please do not be alarmed by this and try to register with another practice.
“Please be assured we are doing all that we can to roll out this vaccination programme and that our colleagues in Primary Care are all working closely with us to vaccinate patients as quickly as possible."
Rydym yn gweithio gyda Bwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Hywel Dda ar gynllun i gyflwyno brechu cleifion â brechlyn Astra Zeneca / Rhydychen.
Yn dilyn arweiniad cenedlaethol, byddwn yn cysylltu â chleifion sydd naill ai'n byw mewn cartref gofal neu sy'n 80 oed neu'n hŷn.
Byddwch yn amyneddgar gyda ni wrth i ni weithio gyda'r bwrdd iechyd i gyflawni'r cam cyntaf hwn o'r rhaglen frechu gyhoeddus.
Byddwn yn cysylltu â chi cyn gynted ag y bydd gennym gyflenwadau brechlyn i'w cynnig.
Dywedodd Dr Sion James "Rydyn ni'n gwybod y bydd hyn yn digwydd yn raddol dros yr wythnosau nesaf ac y gallai rhai meddygfeydd dderbyn brechlyn cyn eraill.
“Peidiwch â dychryn gan hyn a cheisio cofrestru gydag practis arall.
“Gallwn eich sicrhau ein bod yn gwneud popeth o fewn ein gallu i gyflwyno'r rhaglen frechu hon a bod ein cydweithwyr Gofal Sylfaenol i gyd yn gweithio'n agos gyda ni i frechu cleifion cyn gynted â phosibl."

Coronavirus cases are increasing on a daily basis.
Patients will understand that Padarn Surgery will have temporary
measures in place to reduce the risk to patients and staff.
For Routine Appointments / Contact with the surgery
First contact with the GP surgery should be made by telephone. Your enquiry will initially be taken by an experienced Receptionist who will triage your enquiry. The receptionist will then determine the correct NHS professional to deal with your enquiry. This may be a GP, Practice Nurse, Physiotherapist, Medical secretary or a member of our Administration team.
A telephone or video appointment will then be made with the most appropriate professional. They will contact you to determine whether the issue can be dealt with remotely or whether a face to face appointment is required.
econsult - is for non urgent medical advice you can use this 24/7. You will receive a reply by the end of the next working day.

If you need to drop off your prescription, please use the post box located on the front of the main entrance. If you usually collect your prescription from Padarn Surgery, we would ask patients to consider providing a stamped self-addressed envelope in order to reduce the need to attend.
We are reviewing all our routine clinics and non-essential services in order to minimise the spread of Coronavirus.
Your first port of call if you are experiencing symptoms is the online NHS Wales symptom checker www.nhsdirect.wales.nhs.uk/COVID19 or by calling 111.

University information
The three town practices offer the e-Consult facility.
eConsult enables NHS based GP practices to offer online consultations to their patients. This allows patients to submit their symptoms or requests to their own GP electronically and offers around the clock NHS self-help information, signposting to services, and a symptom checker.
eConsult is the most widely used digital triage tool in NHS primary care, built by NHS GPs for NHS patients, designed to enhance patient access, improve practice efficiencies and signpost patients to the right place at the right time for their care.
The practices have taken the difficult decision to suspend all routine appointments and are asking all patients to pre-book appointments if required. Patients are asked to ring the practice in the first instance and will be signposted to the most appropriate treatment.
The practice will still be offering clinical need appointments and telephone triage. Patients will be asked to outside when they arrive for their appointment and not in the practice waiting room. Patients will be asked to wear a mask when entering the building to see a clinician and the clinician will also be wearing a mask during your appointment.
If you are not able to send an email or have not signed up for My Health Online, prescription requests will need to be left in the prescription box outside, this can found to right hand side of the building at the rear entrance door.
