If you are travelling abroad you may require vaccinations and these will vary depending on where you are travelling.
Our nursing team are able to provide appropriate advice and some vaccinations, whilst other vaccines may need to be ordered on a private prescription as not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS, a fee may be payable.
To ensure that each of our patients receives the appropriate advice regarding travel vaccinations a copy of this travel vaccination form needs to be completed and returned to the surgery. The patient will then be advised on what vaccinations are required and if an appointment needs to be booked.
It is important that each patient travelling completes a separate form.
It is important that the form is completed as early as possible as the vaccinations need to be administered at last 2 weeks prior to travel to provide the cover required.
