Travel Services
We are only able to provide the NHS Vaccinations recommended for travel. These are –
□ Diphtheria, polio and tetanus (combined booster)
□ Hepatitis A
□ Typhoid
□ Cholera
If you require any of the above NHS vaccinations simply return to the practice, with the pre-travel health and vaccination form attached completed, and book an appointment with a Practice Nurse.
This must be at least 5 weeks before the date of your intended travel. Any later then this and we may be unable to fully administer the required schedule of vaccinations you require, leaving you at risk when abroad.
We would ask that the attached pre-travel health and vaccination form is fully completed making sure that you have mentioned all areas to be visited, i.e. countries and specific vaccinations or medication you will require, plus any additional advice needed before embarking on your travels.
