Health Checks

Travel Vaccinations

If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make an appointment with the practice nurse to discuss your travel arrangements. This will include which countries and areas within countries that you are visiting to determine what vaccinations are required.

There is further information about countries and vaccinations required on the links below: 

Europe & Russia	North America
Central America	South America
Caribbean	Africa
Middle East	Central Asia
East Asia	Australasia and Pacific

Prior to an appointment you must also access the website:

www.fitfortravel.nhs.uk/home

On this website you need to access each country you are intending to visit and understand what recommendations are being made. During your appointment with the nurse, you will revisit this information and you are able to ask questions and confirm which vaccinations you require.

Without researching this information via this website before your appointment, it is likely you will run out of time which of course we want to avoid for you. 

If after reading the information on the website you have decided you do not require any vaccinations, then no further action is necessary.

Please complete the attached Travel Health Questionnaire (one for each person travelling) and once completed bring to the Practice and book your appointment. We are unable to book an appointment without a form being received at the same time.

To enable the best possible time frame to offer advice and receive your full vaccination course, we would recommend you allow 10 weeks between your appointment to your departure date.

Many of the travel immunisations are not NHS funded and costs are enclosed in the attached literature.

Travelling in Europe

If you are travelling to Europe the EU has published useful information for travellers on the European website.

Test Results

Patients are asked to ensure that they contact the surgery to obtain results of any tests that are undertaken.

Results are available by telephoning the surgery after 12:00pm.

Non-NHS Services

Some services provided are not covered under our contract with the NHS and therefore attract charges. Examples include the following:

• Medicals for pre-employment, sports and driving requirements (HGV, PSV etc.)
• Insurance claim forms
• Prescriptions for taking medication abroad
• Private sick notes
• Vaccination certificates

The fees charged are based on the British Medical Association (BMA) suggested scales and our reception staff will be happy to advise you about them along with appointment availability.

Please note this work is in addition to the GP's usual workload.

Any request for Non-NHS reports, certificates or forms will take approximately two weeks to carry out. Please bear this in mind when handing in your request, we are often unable to make this process any quicker and so urgent requests cannot be accommodated.
