Immunisation is the safest, most effective way of protecting your child against serious diseases. It is therefore important that your child is protected. An immunisation clinic is held by the Practice Nurses and your child will be sent an appointment to attend at the appropriate time. If you are unable to attend please contact the Surgery to make alternative arrangements.

Many travel vaccines must be given a couple of weeks before to travelling. For that reason we can only vaccinate those that have a departure date of at least 8 weeks in the future. Please call the surgery or come into the practice to arrange a telephone appointment with the nurse.

This allows the practice nurses to check your medical records to see what vaccines you have had in the past, Find which vaccines are needed for the country/countries you're travelling too, and arrange an appointment for you to receive these vaccines.If it is less than 8 weeks we advise you contact your local Chemist for the Travel Vaccines or try Peaseway Medical Centre who offer a travel clinic.

Please speak with the receptionist if you require more details of how to order your repeat prescriptions. This is to ensure safe and responsible issuing of medication and to prevent unnecessary medicine waste. Online from your GP Practice - if you are not already registered for patient online please speak to the practice.
