Vaccination centres

I had my first dose of the vaccine on the 20th February and they made me an appointment there and then for today, the 15th May. Honestly, I cannot fault the experience of the first injection, it was flawless. Today however, I got a lift to the Al-Hikmah centre and arrived five minutes before my appointment time only to find the gates locked and everything shut! I had had no phone call from them or my GP to let me know this was going to be the case and help me book another appointment. As it is exactly 12 weeks since my first injection I am slightly worried that this second one won't be as effective as currently the booking website is showing me that my nearest vaccination centre with free slots is in Bramley, Leeds!

Visited Cathedral House vaccination centre for my first jab. It was really well organised, everyone involved was friendly and helpful and there was a very calm atmosphere which helped to put people at ease. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that there was a group of 3 people being vaccinated together ahead of me which meant I was waiting longer to move forward to the cubicle than a number of people around me - may have been better to take that into consideration and leave that cubicle waiting queue free until the last of the trio was being vaccinated. All in all though a great experience. Good that the coffee area is open too for anyone waiting.

Was slightly nervous about going for my jab but the experience was better than I expected - well organised and easy access to the Stadium, slight queue when I arrived but it moved quickly and helpful and informative staff gave information at each stage. The jab was administered quickly and efficiently and useful advice was given regarding possible side effects. The only side effect I had was a sore arm for a few days.

had a phone call from my practice to fix the date for the appointment. had to queue outside building but was not waiting long. Good arrangements re marchalls explaining what to expect. All socially distanced. Actual injection was quick and painless. Very impressed by the organisation of it.

Very good

Straight in, clear directions, a lady asked me a few general health questions then in, done and out within 5 mins. V impressed

Very fast & efficient.

From the car park attendants and the lady who sanitised my hands to the doctors and assistants that gave me my jab - excellent.

I was really anxious about the jab but the nurse was so lovely and explained everything and really reassured me.

Really friendly and helpful staff at Calderdale Royal Hospital. I was really nervous and the staff member who gave me the vaccination was excellent, reassuring, and caring. I noticed that staff were paramount at cleaning areas after each person which was really good to see and made you feel that safety was controlled well. The only downside was the directions or guides when in the hospital i didn't know where the vaccination centre was as i parked in the main car park as this is the only place i know( near the main entrance) and no signs from here at all to direct to the training or learning centre which was where it was. I got lost which made me even more nervous.
