If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make a telephone appointment with the practice nurse to discuss your travel arrangements and help determine what vaccinations are required.
This initial appointment should be made least six weeks before you travel. A second appointment will be required at least two weeks before you travel for you to receive the vaccinations and allow time for the vaccines to work.
Travel Vaccines
Vaccines ideally need to be given at least 6 – 8 weeks before departure if possible. Vaccines need time to take effect and some may require a course over several weeks.
Travel Vaccination Prices
Travel advice is covered by the NHS, however some vaccinations and prescriptions are only available privately.
