FIRST AID TRAINING – 10TH JUNE 2026

Adult First Aid Workshop (includes CPR and using a Defibrillator)

Would you like to feel more confident about your ability to help people, family, friends, work colleagues or the public) in a medical emergency?

Provided by the British Red Cross, we intend to provide three of these interactive workshops each year. The next will be on Wednesday 10th June 2026 from 2 to 3.30pm. It will be held in the New Hayesbank Surgery meeting room. Because of the interactive nature of the workshop and the size of the meeting room, attendance will be restricted to twelve patients.

Please email kmicb.newhayesbanksurgery@nhs.net if you wish to attend using the subject ‘Adult First Aid Workshop’. Places will be allocated on a ‘first come first served’ basis. You will be informed if you have been allocated a place or not by Wendy Large, the PPG’s Adult First Aid Champion.

Mounjaro (weight loss injections)

Update from Kent and Medway ICB

As you will be aware, NHS England is making tirzepatide (Mounjaro) available in a phased approached over the next few years. NICE guidelines say that in order to gain access to tirzepatide (Mounjaro) on the NHS, patients must also be referred on to a diet and exercise support programme.
 
Although it has been announced that it will become available in primary care settings from Monday, 23 June (for a specific patient cohort) arrangements are being made to mobilise a provider of the necessary Behavioural Support for Obesity Prescribing (BSOP) that is specified in the NICE guidelines.

Until this service is in place in Kent and Medway, it is not possible to prescribe tirzepatide (Mounjaro) in primary care.
 
Please also note there is no provider of tirzepatide (Mounjaro) available under right to choose.
