Travel Clinic Form

We would emphasise that you should seek specialist advice through a private travel clinic if you need to consider other vaccines (eg Hep B, Japanese Encephalitis or Yellow Fever) or if you need Malaria prevention tablets. These are not covered by the NHS.

Health risks abroad vary between countries. Your individual risk will depend on where you are going, how long you are travelling for, accommodation, your planned activities and your general health.

Some travel vaccines are available free of charge to NHS patients:

Diptheria, Tetanus, Polio boosters (lasts at least 10 years)
Typhoid (lasts 3 years)
Hepatitis A (lasts 1 year unless repeated within a year in which case can confer immunity for 20 years)
Cholera

Vaccinations at the surgery are carried out by the practice nurse.

To arrange to be vaccinated for travel:

Complete the Travel Clinic Form online or by calling to the surgery in person and collecting a copy of the form. If you are travelling as a family an individual form will be needed for each person.
Completed forms should be returned to the surgery at least 8 weeks before you plan to travel.
Once we have received your completed form, the practice nurse or pharmacist will review the information you have provided and be in touch to discuss which NHS vaccines you require and arrange an appointment for you. This will take up to one week. Please be sure to provide your correct contact number on the form.
You can access further travel advice from your local pharmacy, private travel clinics or online at www.fitfortravel.nhs.uk
We will be happy to provide you with a copy of your vaccination record.
