Travel Vaccinations
Information and advice for travelling abroad
Travel Vaccinations
If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel, please complete a travel form under the admin section of Anima - Log into Anima.
It is important to make this initial appointment as early as possible - at least 6 weeks before you travel - this is due to the demand on our NHS service and the need to prioritise the services we can offer at shorter notice.
We recommend if patients are travelling in less than 6 weeks that you contact a local travel clinic for your vaccinations.
Advice and vaccination are given by the Practice Nurse. Please do not ask any of the Care Navigators for advice regarding travel vaccines, as they are not medically trained. If you have any queries, you must make a 20-minute appointment with the Practice Nurse. You will be asked to complete a travel questionnaire prior to the appointment, so that the Practice Nurse can check what vaccines you may require.
See our Prescribing Policy for Patients travelling/ living abroad
The following vaccinations are available free on the NHS from our practice
- Cholera
- Diphtheria, polio and tetanus booster
- Hepatitis A - some combined vaccines, such as combined - hepatitis A and B
- Typhoid
These vaccines protect against diseases which are considered to be the greatest risk to public health if they were brought into the country.
Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription and these incur a charge over and above the normal prescription charge. This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.
The following vaccinations are ordered on private prescription from a local private clinic
For other private travel vaccinations, you are advised to attend a local private clinic and you will have to pay for these to be administered.
- Hepatitis B
- Meningitis C and other meningitis vaccines
- Japanese encephalitis
- Rabies
- Tick-borne encephalitis
- Tuberculosis
- Yellow fever
- Malaria Tablets
