Travel Vaccinations

Please download and complete this Travel Questionnaire and hand it into the reception desk

The practice offers both advice and vaccination for travel abroad.No charge is made for the advice and most vaccinations are available either on NHS prescription or from stock held at the practice. Please note however that there are certain vaccines that are only available outwith the NHS and for which a fee is charged. A fee is also charged for any Certificate of Vaccination requested.

You may need travel vaccinations depending on the country or countries you intend to visit. To help us advise you, please collect a Patient Travel Questionnaire from Reception noting the following important information:

• Please hand in completed questionnaire to us at least 6 weeks prior to departure.
• Forms handed in within 4 weeks of travel will be processed if possible but forms handed in within 2 weeks of travel will not be processed, however a Travel Advice print-out will be offered and we would recommend that you contact one of the specialist travel clinics, details available from Reception
• You must contact the surgery one week after handing in your completed questionnaire when you will be advised if your form/prescription(s) are ready for collection. Please note that the practice will not contact you.
• You would then proceed to book your nurse appointment to have your injections and to receive travel advice.

Please note that travelling abroad for business purposes is usually the remit of the employer's Occupational Health Service
