Travel protection
For advice contact reception and ask
for a travel form. This form must be
completed and returned to the
surgery before you see our practice
nurse.
A vaccination programme may need to
start several months before your
holiday so please contact the
surgery as soon as you know your
travel plans.
If you require travel vaccinations
at short notice will we try our best
to help, but if our travel
appointments are booked up, you can
contact the MASTA travel clinic in
Newcastle on 0191 230 3721.
Immunisation against Hepatitis A,
Cholera, Typhoid, Polio, Hepatitis B
and Rabies may be necessary
depending on the country that you
visit. Protection may also be
required against malaria. There is a
charge for the cost of Rabies and
some other rarer vaccines as these
are not provided by the NHS. A
private administration charge is
also payable where travel vaccines
are not provided by the NHS. Malaria
tablets are only available on
private prescription.
Please note that because vaccines
must be ordered as required for
specific travel needs we do ask that
the cost of non NHS vaccine is paid
at the time of arranging the
vaccination programme with the
practice nurse.
For more information and details
please ask at reception.
