We ask that you allow at least 8 weeks prior to your holiday to arrange your travel vaccinations. This allows the nurse to assess what vaccine requirements you need, to order the vaccines in and to ensure that we have available appointments to book you in. Vaccines need time to take effect and may require a course over several weeks.
- If you do not allow enough time prior to your departure you may be advised to go to a local travel clinic.
The only travel vaccines that are provided by the NHS at no charge to patients are:
- Polio (given as combined diphtheria/tetanus/polio jab)
- Typhoid
- Hepatitis A
- Cholera
- You WILL have to pay for travel vaccines that are not available free of charge on the NHS.
Travel Assessment
We offer a basic travel advice and immunisation service. Please complete the travel assessment so that our nurses can advise on the vaccinations that we can offer you.
We only offer travel vaccinations that are free on the NHS. If you require further vaccinations outside of this schedule you will need to attend a Travel Clinic. If you are travelling abroad please complete and submit the travel form in plenty of time (we require 8 weeks notice) before your journey.
