If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to book a telephone consultation 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 and what charges are involved.

Information about countries and vaccinations required can be found on the links below:

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

It is important to have your first vaccination as early as possible – at least 6 weeks before you travel. Your second appointment needs to be at least 2 weeks before you travel to allow the vaccines to work.

If travelling in less than 2 weeks and there are no available appointments with the practice nurse you may have to go to a private travel clinic. Details of these can be obtained from the internet or the practice nurse.
