GP surgeries in Wyre Forest will start contacting people about booking the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccination on Monday, February 22.
Patients who had their first jabs on the week beginning December 14 will be the first to be contacted next week.
These people are among the district s oldest patients, so families are being asked to let older relatives know to expect a phone call, and to remind them that their GP will never ask for financial information.
In an update on social media, Wyre Forest Health Partnership (WFHP) said: The WFHP team has now given approximately 19,500 Covid vaccinations from our two sites in Stourport and Kidderminster, and we have really appreciated the positive feedback which we have received.

Kidderminster Medical Centre
DOCTORS surgeries in Wyre Forest are gearing up for the second phase of the Covid-19 vaccine roll-out after delivering the first dose of the jab to over 14,000 patients.
The Wyre Forest Health Partnership surgeries, which include Kidderminster and Stourport Medical Centres, have now given approximately 14,000 Covid jabs and have vaccinated nearly all care home residents in the district.
The partnership is due to finish giving first dose vaccinations to housebound residents this week and says the system is now gearing up for the delivery of second doses.
In an update to patients on Monday, Clare Nock, chief executive officer of Wyre Forest Health Partnership, said: Our patients who are 70 and older or in care homes have nearly all been vaccinated. Exceptions are those who were ill, isolating or chose not to have the vaccination.

Wyre Forest GPs move to next group in Covid vaccine roll-out

HOUSEBOUND residents and people in their early 70s in Wyre Forest are being contacted to receive the first dose of the coronavirus vaccine as local GP practices make their way down the cohort priority list set out by the government.
As of January 19, GP surgeries under the Wyre Forest Health Partnership had administered just under 8,000 Covid-19 jabs to people in the over-80s and over-75s categories, including all eligible care home residents.
Over-70s are next on the list, as well as people who are classed as housebound, meaning doctors surgery staff will now be tasked with arranging for those residents to receive the first dose in their homes.
