Travellers should give 6 to 8 WEEKS notice prior to holiday departure date to ensure adequate time for full assessment. We may also need to order certain vaccines and they are not always available
If you are travelling and would like an assessment the quickest way to do this (if you have a smartphone) is to send us an online consultation request asking for the questionnaire.
Once in the online system select "Admin Query" then "I need help with something else". You can then ask to be sent the travel health questionnaire. The online consultation service can be accessed by clicking HERE.
We will then send you a SMS "text" message with a link in so you can complete the questionnaire online .
Alternatively you can download a form in MS Word format Travel Assessment Form (DOCX, 38KB)
If you complete online you can save it and return it to nl.B81005@nhs.net or hand write, scan and return to nl.B81005@nhs.net . Alternatively simply drop the completed form off at Reception
You will be contacted by the surgery to let you know if you need to book an appointment for vaccinations or to attend for a travel clinic appointment.
If you have not heard from us within 2 WEEKS of completing the questionnaire please get in touch.
A charge will be made for certain immunisations and vaccinations which are not covered by the NHS.
Late travellers (less than 4 WEEKS before travelling) may still submit the form to the surgery and the travel nurse will then advise the next steps going forward. This may include referral to an external travel health clinic
